Rahul's security: Centre writes to UP Chief Secy

New Delhi: Just a day before Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi's visit to Amethi, a letter from the Centre to the Uttar Pradesh Chief Secretary complaining about lapses in Rahul Gandhi's security cover has surfaced in the capital.

The letter issued on the October 27 cites two specific instances of lapses - one in Raebareli and the other in Amethi. Both instances happened this year.

The center has reportedly warned the state government to adhere to security norms.

Rahul and his sister Priyanka will visit this constituency on Friday to review works undertaken by women self help groups.

Rahul Gandhi would leave for New Delhi the same evening, while Priyanka would stay overnight at the Sanjay Gandhi Hospital guesthouse and leave on Saturday.

The Special Protection Guards providing security cover to the two have taken charge at the guesthouse.
