During a significant breach of security during the commemoration of the 2001 Parliament terror attack, two individuals infiltrated the Lok Sabha chamber today by leaping from the visitors’ gallery. They vociferously chanted slogans and discharged yellow smoke from canisters, instigating widespread panic and disorder within the House. The intrusion perpetrated by two assailants within the hallowed halls of Parliament necessitates an exhaustive scrutiny of the security apparatus. It is a matter of profound consternation that, on the very anniversary of the 2001 Parliament attack, such a glaring lapse in security transpired. This raises substantial and disconcerting queries about the efficacy of the screening procedures employed for parliamentary visitors. Of paramount concern is the surreptitious introduction of gas canisters into the heart of Parliament, escaping detection. The fact that individuals hailing from diverse regions clandestinely orchestrated this incident without undergoing scrutiny in this digital age is deeply troubling. The severity of the situation mandates a comprehensive investigation to unearth the unvarnished truth.
The incident casts doubt on the competence of the security agencies entrusted with safeguarding the sanctity of Parliament. The two individuals leaping from the visitors’ gallery to the inner workings of Parliament is yet another disquieting facet that demands immediate rectification to preclude any recurrence. Any form of protest conducted in such a manner cannot be allowed, as it could have led to an undesirable situation, potentially triggering significant retaliatory measures from the deployed security personnel. The exigency of the hour dictates a stringent oversight of the security protocols in place. While witnessing live parliamentary proceedings from the visitors’ gallery is a cherished aspiration for the general public, parliamentarians must exercise heightened caution when issuing such passes. Fortunately, no harm has been done, but this event has laid bare numerous vulnerabilities in the security apparatus both within and around the Parliament House, demanding expeditious rectification. Even seemingly inconsequential breaches tarnish the global perception of the nation. Vigilance stands as the paramount deterrent against such transgressions, and any lapse in it is untenable.
