In the aftermath of the Grand Alliance government’s fall in Bihar, a significant change unfolded as the state’s new government opted to withdraw the ‘Z Plus’ category security from Tejashwi Yadav, the former Deputy Chief Minister and prominent RJD leader. The decision, articulated through a notification from the state’s home department, relegates Yadav’s security to a level akin to that provided for ministers in Bihar.
The move is part of the restructuring of security protocols following the political transition. In tandem with the downgrade for Tejashwi Yadav, the security arrangement has been reallocated to newly appointed Deputy Chief Ministers Samrat Chaudhary and Vijay Kumar Sinha.
This development marks a shift in the security dynamics within Bihar’s political landscape, reflecting the adjustments that often accompany changes in government. Tejashwi Yadav, who had previously enjoyed the heightened security of the ‘Z Plus’ category, now finds himself under a security framework commensurate with ministerial standards.
As the state adapts to the evolving political climate, these security adjustments underscore the nuanced interplay between politics and protection, raising questions about the broader implications for key figures in Bihar’s political arena.
