SRINAGAR: Jammu and Kashmir Apni Party president (JKAP) Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari has been provided ‘Z+’ category armed Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) security cover by the government of India.
ANI reported that the businessman-turned-politician and former Minister Altaf Bukhari (65) will be provided ‘Z+’ category security round the clock in Jammu and Kashmir, following a recent security review meeting based on an Intelligence Bureau threat analysis.
The security was accorded to the Apni Party President by the Ministry of Home Affairs.
Z+ security is the second highest level of security in India.
