If it was Sam Pirotrda yesterday, today I met with spl protection group of PM. The ministry is hosting a program on 14th which PM is attending. So we went through an elobrate security procedure to ensure everything is in place. We went through minute by minute details of the program and got security clearance. They will take possession of the venue 24 hrs before the program and so even for reharsal we have to get passes. They were keen to know the type of people invited, how many of these, who will approach the PM (these people, if not minister & secretary, have to get a special pass called proximity passes), when they will approach and so on. The ministry wanted mikes to be placed in the audience and it was refused for security fear – mikes can be thrown on the PM! In all it was a good experience about holding high level functions.
