`Pre-planned bloody conspiracy`: Adityanath on PM Modi`s security breach

PM Narendra Modi's security breach incident was a "pre-planned bloody conspiracy", UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanth said today.  The Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister also slammed his Punjab counterpart Charanjit Singh Channi, saying that even the basic protocols of receiving the Prime Minister at the airport were not followed during the meet.

"PM Modi's security breach during his visit to Punjab was a pre-planned sponsored conspiracy. Punjab government didn't follow the protocol. Drone or any attack might have happened there but Punjab government ignored all this. Congress should apologize to the country," Adityanath said.

"The local intelligence in detail brings inputs to the knowledge of the state government. In the intelligence input, it was already stated that more than 1 lakh people will be coming to the Prime Minster's rally," Yogi Adityanath said.

Condemning Channi's statement that he briefed Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on the incident, Yogi Adityanath said it reflects the "CM's irresponsible attitude."

"In an irresponsible way, he briefed about a severe security lapse to someone who is not related to Punjab or government of India in a direct or indirect manner," he said.

The Prime Minister was stuck atop a flyover for 15-20 minutes while on his way to Ferozepur in Punjab last week due to the road being blocked by some protesters. The Ministry of Home Affairs termed it as a "major lapse" in his security.
