Pant to get Z security

The Centre has upgraded the security of its interlocutor on Kashmir K C Pant to Z category, before his visit to the valley sometime next week.

Sources said the security of Pant, also Deputy Chairman of Planning Commission, who would be visiting the valley to hold talks with former chief minister G M Shah, had been upgraded following reports that militants might try to create some mischief.

Under the new security cover, Pant will have a 24-hour armed escort, besides a couple of pilot cars, the sources said.

In addition to the Z category security, Pant has been provided additional armed guards at his residence and office to prevent any untoward incident.

Pant was earlier under the X category security.
