NEW DELHI: Over a dozen MLAs and MPs from West Bengal, including those who recently joined the BJP from the TMC and other parties, have been given VIP security cover by the Centre, officials said Saturday.
The security has been approved by the Union home ministry after analysing a "threat assessment" report and recommendations prepared by the central security agencies, they said.
