Kolkata: With increasing threat perception,
the West Bengal Government on Friday decided to set up a State-
Level Security Committee to ensure security of central and
state Public Sector Undertakings in the state.
Announcing this here, state's Home Secretary Samar Ghosh
said that after the Committee was set up, it would start
identifying all critical industrial units in the state.
A similar committee at the district level headed by
District Magistrates would identify such units in there and
submit its report to the Committee, he said.
Even as these units had its own security, these units
required their security to be strengthened following
increasing threat perceptions, he said.
A high-level meeting was held earlier in this regard.
State Chief Secretary Ardhendu Sen, Home Secretary Samar
Ghosh, DGP Naparajit Mukherjee, Kolkata Police Commissioner
Gautam Mohan Chakraborty were among those who attended the
meeting.
