However, on Friday, Calcutta High Court’s single-judge bench of Justice Moushumi Bhattacharya on one hand dismissed Singh’s plea for the interim security and on the other hand sought a report from the Union home ministry on this count within the next ten days.
Initially, after Singh joined BJP from Trinamool Congress before the 2019 Lok Sabha polls, the Union government granted “Y+” category security. However, after he became the MP, his security was upgraded “Z” category, after Singh categorically complained of life threat from local goons backed by ruling Trinamool Congress. However, that security was removed a little over a month after he joined back Trinamool Congress.
