New Delhi: Today, chaos ensued within and outside the Parliament in Delhi on the anniversary of the 2001 terrorist attack. On one side, two young men breached security in the Lok Sabha, leaping over the gallery and releasing colored gas, while on the other side, a young man and a woman unleashed gas outside the Parliament, leading to commotion in the surrounding area.
The incident outside Parliament led to the detention of two individuals by the Delhi Police, identified as Neelam and Anmol Shinde. Neelam, a 42-year-old woman from Hisar, Haryana, and Anmol Shinde, a 25-year-old man from Latur, Maharashtra, were apprehended and taken to the Parliament Street Police Station. Delhi Police, along with the Intelligence Bureau, is currently conducting investigations into the matter.
Protesters outside Parliament chanted slogans such as "Bharat Mata Ki Jai" and "Jai Bhim" after releasing colored gas. The demonstrators expressed frustration at their concerns not being heard, leading to their unconventional protest. Inside the Lok Sabha, a young man named Sagar jumped from the visitors' gallery, causing a stir among lawmakers. MP Danish Ali revealed that the individual who leaped in the Lok Sabha had entered using a visitor pass issued in the name of a Member of Parliament.
It is crucial to note that today marks the 22nd anniversary of the terrorist attack on Parliament, which occurred on December 13, 2001. Despite the heightened security during the winter session, these incidents reveal significant lapses in Parliament's security.
The events of the day highlight the need for a thorough review of security measures, both within the Parliament complex and in its vicinity. The anniversary of the 2001 attack serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of maintaining robust security protocols to prevent any untoward incidents. As investigations proceed, authorities must address the lapses and implement necessary changes to ensure the safety and security of Parliament and its members.
In conclusion, the incidents within and outside Parliament on this significant day underscore the need for a comprehensive security overhaul. The breach in security not only disrupts the functioning of the Parliament but also raises concerns about the safety of lawmakers and the sanctity of the legislative process. It is imperative that corrective measures are taken promptly to prevent any recurrence of such security breaches in the future.
