What is Y-category security? Why was it suddenly given to Vijay?

Vijay is a leading actor in the tamil film industry. He started a political party called Tamizhaga Vetri Kazhagam last year. It has been a year since the party was started, and now the Union home Ministry has ordered to provide Y category security to actor Vijay. What is Y category security, and how many types of security categories are there in India? We will see this in detail in this collection. In india, security is provided in various categories to many people, from the President and prime minister to state governors, Chief Ministers, and very important people. This includes film celebrities and famous businessmen. But it changes depending on their position and the nature of the threat. The President, the first citizen of the country, is provided with security by a bodyguard force of 180 soldiers. The most important security force in india is the Special Production Group (SPG).
The Special Production Group (SPG) was formed after the assassination of former indian prime minister Indira Gandhi. The SPG assumes responsibility for the security of the prime minister and her immediate family members wherever they are in the world. This organization, which is made up of soldiers selected from the paramilitary forces, is also providing security to the current prime minister Modi. There are a total of 3,000 soldiers in this unit. Next to the SPG is the Z+ security unit. The Z Plus unit was formed by selecting soldiers from the National Security Force, Railway Protection Force, Central Security Force, Central Industrial Security Force, and Indo-Tibetan Border Security Force, which carry out anti-terrorist operations. This unit provides security to former prime ministers, former presidents, and leaders who are under serious threats.
Tamil Nadu chief minister M.K. stalin is also provided with this Z Plus unit security. The monthly expenditure for this group, which provides security to more than 5 bulletproof vehicles and more than 50 people, is about 33 lakh rupees. The unit, which includes 6 people from the National Security Force and 22 people including the police, is called Z Unit. This is the security provided to VIPs whose lives are in danger with the recommendation of the intelligence department. 1 to 3 armed soldiers travel with the VIP wherever he goes. Z Unit security in tamil Nadu has been provided to bjp state president Annamalai. This category is paid 16 lakhs per month.

Next in line is the Y Plus security category. Four National Security Force personnel will provide security to a particular VIP. In addition, a 6-member police force will provide security to their homes on a rotating basis. salman khan, kangana ranaut, Shah Rukh Khan, etc. have been provided with this security. 15 lakhs are spent on this security force every month. Next comes the Y-category security. The Y category security is currently provided to the TTV leader Vijay. In this category, 8 guards, including one or two National Security Force personnel, will be included. 12 lakhs are being spent on this category per month. This security will be provided to actor Vijay only in tamil Nadu. Considering the threat to his security, the Union home Ministry has ordered him to be given Y-category security. Next to this is the X Division. It is noteworthy that it will be provided only by local police, without any National Security Forces.
