NDAs presidential nominee Draupadi Murmu gets Z+ security cover
cancel

After announcing former Jharkhand Governor Draupadi Murmu as the Presidential candidate for NDA, the Centre has accorded a Z+ security cover to her by the armed Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) starting today.

Reportedly, the Union home ministry directed the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) to deploy its VIP protection team to take charge of Murmu's security.

A detachment of about 14-16 personnel of the paramilitary force based in Odisha has taken over the task of providing the security cover to Murmu. They will be escorting her wherever she travels across the state and the country, added reports. The security personnel will also secure her home in Rairangpur in Odisha.

BJP president J P Nadda announced the candidature of Murmu, a party leader from Odisha who served as Jharkhand governor, at a press conference on Monday night following a meeting of the party's parliamentary board, which included Prime Minister Narendra Modi and other senior leaders.

Speaking about Draupadi Murmu's candidature, BJP chief JP Nadda said that preference has been given for the first time to a woman tribal candidate.

"I am surprised as well as delighted. As a tribal woman from remote Mayurbhanj district, I had not thought about becoming the candidate for the top post," Murmu told reporters at her Rairangpur residence.

She said the NDA government has now proven the BJP's slogan of "Sab Ka Saath, Sab Ka Biswas," by selecting a tribal woman for the top post.

She is the first woman and a tribal leader from Odisha to be appointed a governor in an Indian state. If elected, Murmu will be the first tribal President of India and the second-ever female President. The presidential elections are scheduled for July 18.
