Security breach during PM Modi’s rally

A massive security breach by Prime Minister Narendra Modi occurred during his election rally in Davanagere on Saturday. The security was breached by a man who tried to approach the prime minister but was apprehended by police in time.

This is the second security breach during PM Modi's rally. It happened earlier in the Hubli road show when a kid came close to the prime minister.

The incident occurred while PM Modi was on his way to the Hubballi-Dharwad Railway Sports Complex to kick off the 26th edition of the National Youth Festival. The boy was dragged away by security officials.

A young man from the Koppal region has been identified as the intruder. The police are questioning him.

When senior police officer Alok Kumar spotted the man trying to cross the barricade, he ran towards him and intercepted him. He was followed by a Special Protection Group commando.

Kumar shared on Twitter that there was no security breach. He said that there was no breach in security as such of Hon ble PM at Davangere, as reported in a section of media. It was an unsuccessful attempt and immediately caught by myself and SPG at a safe distance. Appropriate action is being taken in this regard. PM Modi said in his rally that Karnataka has decided to bring back the double engine government in the state.

The Prime Minister inaugurated the Rs 4,249 crore, 13.71 km Whitefield Kadugodi to Krishnarajapura metro line, which includes 12 stations, on Saturday.
