Delhi Assembly to Build Watchtower and Patrolling Track to Enhance SecurityPreviousNext

Following a security breach in April when a masked intruder entered the Delhi Assembly premises, the government has planned to enhance safety by constructing a watchtower and a dedicated patrolling track along the boundary wall. The project, costing approximately Rs 94 lakh, aims to improve surveillance and rapid response capabilities. Delhi Assembly Speaker Vijender Gupta, who also received bomb threats earlier this year, convened a high-level security meeting involving Delhi Police, PWD, and the Intelligence Bureau to address these concerns. Construction is expected to be completed within two months after awarding the contract.
