India launches investigation into parliamentary security breach

India’s government is looking into a security problem at its parliament. Two people got into the building and caused a disturbance by yelling and releasing colored smoke.

At least four people have been taken by the police and it’s said that two others are being held.

We still don’t know why they did it.

Opposition leaders didn’t like that security failed on the anniversary of a previous attack on the parliament.

They want Pratap Simha, a member of the BJP, to be punished for allegedly allowing the intruders to enter the public gallery in parliament.

MrSimha and his party have not said anything officially. The BBC sent an email to the MP to ask for their thoughts.

Attackers release colored gas in India’s government building.

On Thursday, there were more security measures around the parliament building. There were barriers outside the building to stop people from getting in.

The meetings in both houses were stopped because the opposition politicians wanted to talk about the incident and hear from the prime minister and the home minister.

“They should have at least criticized the incident,” said Congress MP Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury to reporters afterwards.

Derek O’Brien, a member of the opposition in the upper house of parliament, called for Home Minister Amit Shah to make a statement. As a result, he was suspended for bad behavior.

Before the meeting ended, defense minister Rajnath Singh said in parliament that everyone had criticized the incident. “We, including both ruling and opposition MPs, need to be cautious about who we give passes to enter parliament,” he said.

A police officer told Reuters that people can’t visit the new parliament building until they make sure it’s safe.

The news says that four people, three men and a woman in their 20s and 30s, will go to court on Thursday. The police have not said for sure who they are, but their families have talked to the local news and their pictures and names are in the newspapers.

The event happened on Wednesday when politicians were working in the Lok Sabha, which is the lower part of India’s parliament. Earlier today, President Droupadi Murmu, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and other leaders honored the nine people who were killed in the 2001 attack. All five of the attackers were also shot and killed.

Lawmakers said that two men jumped into the room from where the public sits and released cans of colored smoke. One man was seen jumping from one table to another while the lawmakers and security officials tried to catch him.

Another man and woman shouted chants outside the parliament and released colored smoke from containers. They were caught on camera being taken away by the police.

Who are the people being charged.

“Four people from different states in India have been arrested. Some media reports say they met on Facebook, but the BBC couldn’t confirm this independently. ”

Some reporters outside the government building talked to one of the people accused of a crime as she was being taken away by the police. “My name is Neelam, and I am not part of any organization,” she said. She also said she was just a regular person without a job and wanted to protest against the government for being too harsh on the people.

Her family talked to ANI news agency from their home in Jind district, northern Haryana. They said they didn’t know she went to Delhi. Her brother said that we only knew she was in Hisar for her studies.

Neelam’s family said she had many degrees, including a master’s degree in education, but they were worried that she might not find a job.

“Her mother told ANI that she used to say she’s very qualified but can’t find a job, so it’s better to die. ”

The man she was protesting with is named Amol Shinde. He comes from Latur district in Maharashtra state. A government official said to the press that Mr. Shinde has been trying for the past few years to pass tests to become a police officer. The police say that his family did not know where he was.

The two men who went into parliament are named Manoranjan D from Mysore, in southern Karnataka, and Sagar Sharma from Lucknow, in northern Uttar Pradesh.

Devaraju Gowda, Manoranjan’s dad, said he didn’t approve of his son’s actions to the reporters.

“This is not right. ” “He said you can protest outside parliament but you can’t do this,” He also said that Manoranjan has a degree in engineering and will raise chickens, sheep, and fish on the family’s land.

“He reads many books about Vivekananda, who is an intellectual and philosopher. “Gowda said he just wanted to help society and people in need. The family is from the area where Mr. Simha works as a lawmaker, and he is accused of allowing the men to enter.

Sagar Sharma was the guy who was caught on camera jumping on tables in parliament. His mother, Rani Sharma, said that he drove a tuk-tuk in the city of Lucknow.

“He left two days ago,” she told the news agency ANI. “He said he was going with his friends for a job. ”

Reports say the fifth person accused was arrested in Gurugram outside of Delhi, while another man was found in Rajasthan. Both guys are accused of aiding the four protesters.
