Foolproof security for C'wealth Games: Chidambaram

New Delhi: Home Minister P Chidambaram has said that NSG security for politicians and other VIPs will continue.

Speaking exclusively to NDTV on the show The Buck Stops Here, the minister said that threats to some leaders could not be underestimated and he had to respect the views voiced in Parliament.

Chidambaram also spoke about several other issues, including India's preparations for the Commonwealth Games next year. He said there would be foolproof security for the Games in New Delhi.

The minister had made a strong statement recently at the World Badminton Championship in Hyderabad by sitting with the crowds at the stadium to watch the finals without any elaborate security cover. It was his way of replying to the England team pulling out of the tournament at the last minute citing a terror threat.
