In light of a recent security breach in the Lok Sabha, stricter guidelines have been implemented. MPs now need to provide a declaration stating that they personally know and take responsibility for their guests. The handbook for Lok Sabha members states that MPs must fill out an application form for visitors, providing details such as name, age, nationality, and occupation. Failure to provide complete details may result in the visitor card not being issued.
Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla later informed the House that four persons have been arrested - two from inside the House, and two from outside Parliament in connection with the incident. Following the incident, Gorhe gave directions to authorities concerned not to issue passes for the council gallery, as per the sources.
Following a security breach, new protocols and a review of Lok Sabha security will be undertaken. Floor leaders suggested full-body scanners, glass walls in visitor galleries, and security personnel in galleries. All visitor passes for Parliament have been suspended, and entry of PAs of MPs and ex-MPs will be restricted.
