After returning to his hometown Bolpur from Tihar Jail, Anubrata Mondal was provided with Y-plus security coverage, while his daughter Sukanya, who was also in Tihar jail has also been provided armed security by the Birbhum district police.
But within a few days of providing Y-plus security to Mr Mondal, Birbhum police provided similar coverage to Kajal Sheikh, a key member of the core committee.
Surprisingly, since yesterday, the security coverage of Kajal Sheikh was further beefed up from Y-category to Y-plus category, making him one of the most important TMC leaders of Birbhum district. A police outpost has also been set up outside his house; he will also be getting a pilot car and a escort vehicle with one permanent sub-inspector and one permanent assistant sub-inspector rank police officers as his bodyguard.
