The Union Home Ministry (MHA) on Wednesday ordered an enquiry into the security breach of the Parliament earlier in the day.
The enquiry will be headed by Director General, Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), Anish Dayal Singh.
In a series of posts on social media platform X, the MHA said, "On request from Lok Sabha Secretariat, MHA has ordered an Enquiry of parliament security breach incident. An Enquiry Committee has been set up under Anish Dayal Singh, DG, CRPF, with members from other security agencies and experts."
The MHA said that the committee will investigate into the reasons for breach in security of Parliament, identify lapses and recommend further action.
