Raipur: Unhappy with “lapse” in her security during her two-day visit to Chhattisgarh, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati asked her State’s Director General of Police (DGP) to suspend the policemen responsible for it, top officials said today. “Mayawati was very upset over the Samajwadi Party workers stopping her vehicle and showing her black flags on Friday when she was going from the Raipur airport to the city,” a top official said. Terming it as a “security lapse”, enraged Mayawati summoned Uttar Pradesh’s DGP Vikram Singh from Lucknow to Raipur and asked him to suspend the security staff attached to her, the sources said. After a preliminary probe yesterday, when Singh gave a clean chit to the policemen, she said, “It was fine that the people had flags in their hand, but what would have happened if they had something else and why did the UP security staff not react properly.” After the incident, the DGP and other officials came from Uttar Pradesh and were with her all the time during the rally and party meetings through out Saturday, they said. When contacted, Chhattisgarh DGP Vishwa Ranjan said, his Uttar Pradesh counterpart had called on him on Saturday and discussed about the incident, but he refused to divulge any details of the talk. –PTI
