SC stays court order to summon Home Ministry officials over plea against Mukesh Ambani's Z+ security
New Delhi/IBNS: The Supreme Court Wednesday stayed an order of the Tripura High Court to summon Home Ministry officials over a plea against central security cover provided to Mukesh Ambani and his family.
Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani has Z+ security and his wife Nita Ambani has Y+ for which they pay.
Z+ is the highest category of security cover accorded to the President, Prime Minister and a few others.
Under this cover, around 50-55 armed commandos belonging to the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) guard India's richest man round the clock.
Ambani also gets a bulletproof car, escort in three shifts and additional security when required.
Additional cover of National Security Guard (NSG) commandos can also be provided if required.
A pilot and follow-on vehicles with commandos armed with sophisticated weapons always guard Ambani whenever he moves in Mumbai or any other part of the country.
The security cover is provided by the Ministry of Home Affairs based on threat perception.
