Bollywood actor Kangana Ranaut has been given Y-plus category security by central security agencies, officials said on Monday, August 7.
The decision has been taken in view of a renewed threat to the actor after she spoke about drug use among a section in the film industry following the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput.
The Y-plus category central cover entails deployment of about 10 armed commandos with the protectee.
Kangana Ranaut took to Twitter to thank Home Minister Amit Shah saying, "This proves that a patriot's voice cannot be crushed by fascists. I am grateful to Amit Shah, if he wanted, he could have advised me to go to Mumbai after a few days but he respected a daughter of India, protected her pride and self-respect. Jai Hind."
