The charge of security for the spiritual leader has been assigned to the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), which has a special wing for VIP security.
It is learnt that the family, who claimed to have come all the way from Uttar Pradesh, had not taken an appointment prior to their meeting with the Congress chief's daughter.
In a major development on Friday, the Centre withdrew the SPG security given to the Gandhis, who will now get ‘Z plus’ security provided by the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF).
