A day after former IPS officer Sanjiv Bhatt's security was withdrawn, a senior police official said that security cover of 68 other protectees, including former MLAs and ex-ministers, had also been withdrawn, following a review of the threat perception to them. SECURITY COVER The former ministers, whose security cover has been withdrawn, were a part of the previous government. However, Bhatt had said on Wednesday that the threat perception to him remained high, and withdrawal of security cover jeopardised his safety. Bhatt's security was withdrawn by city police on Wednesday..
