YSRCP MPs Take Jagan Z-Plus Security Fight to Amit Shah
In India, very important leaders get special police guards to keep them safe.
The extra protection is called a Z+ security cover.
One such leader is YS Jagan Mohan Reddy.
He went to a place called Devarapalli to meet farmers who were sad about their tobacco crops.
A huge number of people, lakhs of them, came to see him.
But there were not enough police officers to keep everyone safe.
His party members, called YSRCP MPs, were very worried.
They told a big government leader named Amit Shah about the problem.
They said the state government has not given Jagan the safety he needs, even though he is supposed to have it.
So they asked for better protection.
YSRCP MPs expressed grave concern over the State Government's repeated failure to provide adequate security to YS Jagan Mohan Reddy.
Jagan Reddy holds a Z+ security status, and several representations have been submitted to the Union Government.

Lakhs of people gathered at the visit, but police failed to provide security proportionate to the crowd.
