I have no fear; will work in public without security: Devendra Fadnavis
Former Chief Minister of Maharashtra and the current Leader of Opposition in State Assembly, Bhartiya Janata Party’s Devendra Fadnavis, on Sunday, said that he had no fear and being a people’s person, he could even continue his work in public without high-level security.
His reaction came after the Uddhav Thackeray-led Maharashtra government reduced his security staff and took away his pilot car and bullet-proof car.
Along with Fadnavis, security cover of MNS Chief Raj Thackeray, BJP MLA Sudhir Mutgantiwar and BJP’s State Chief Chandrakant Patil was also removed.
While speaking to a group of reporters in Nagpur, he said, I was given security after a threat audit. After the inputs from the Centre, my security was increased when I became the CM.
I have no complaints if the current state government thinks that my threat perception is less and I’m not liable to getting extra security,” said Fadnavis.
“I see that other ministers in the state are being given extra security without any threat perception or audit, I ask CM Thackeray to conduct safety audits first and then provide security, he added.
