The Special Protection Group(SPG) and the Intelligence Bureau(IB) were today ordered by the Government to take maximum precautions for Rahul Gandhi’s security after an anonymous letter threatening to kill him surfaced.

A unsigned letter in Tamil threatening to kill the Congress Vice President at an election meeting in Puducherry was received by a senior Congress leader V Narayanasamy on 5th May. Rahul is scheduled to address a rally of the Congress-DMK alliance tomorrow at Karaikal in Puducherry.

Acting swiftly, Union Home Secretary Rajiv Mehrishi directed the SPG, responsible for the protection of the Congress Vice President, and the IB to take all necessary precautionary measures in this regard.
