Parliament Security Breach

During a Zero Hour session in the Lok Sabha, an unprecedented breach unfolded when Sagar Sharma vaulted from the visitors’ gallery into the chamber. He released a yellow smoke canister and aimed to navigate through desks, targeting the Lok Sabha Speaker’s Chair. MPs swiftly intervened, overpowering and detaining him, while his accomplice, Manoranjan, discharged another smoke canister in the gallery.

Meanwhile, two other protesters outside Parliament contributed to the chaos by releasing colored smoke from an aerosol canister. Amid the commotion, one of the protesters, escorted by the police, voiced, “We are students grappling with unemployment. Our parents are laborers, farmers, and small shopkeepers. There’s an attempt to silence our voices.”

In the wake of the breach, Parliament’s security underwent a significant reinforcement, with heightened police and paramilitary presence. Taking charge of the investigation, the Delhi Police’s Special Cell is delving into the deeper motivations driving this startling breach.
