New Delhi, January 20

Bharatiya Janata Party national working president Nitin Nabin has been accorded 'Z' category armed security cover by the Central Reserve Police Force, sources said on Tuesday.

As per a source, Nabin was given CRPF security cover a few days after his appointment as the national working president of the BJP on December 14, by the party's parliamentary board.

The decision to provide the high-level security cover was taken following an order issued by the Ministry of Home Affairs, considering a security assessment by the Intelligence Bureau.

Under the 'Z' category security, Nabin will be protected by a team of armed CRPF personnel during his movements across the country and at his residence.

The formal announcement for Nabin's election as the new National President will be made today.

Nabin, a senior Indian politician, is a five-time member of the Bihar Legislative Assembly and former Minister in the government of Bihar. He is widely recognised for his sustained organisational acumen and administrative experience.

Born on May 23, 1980, in Jharkhand's Ranchi, Nabin entered electoral politics at a young age and was first elected to the Bihar Legislative Assembly in 2006 from the Patna West Assembly Constituency. Since 2010, Nabin has been consecutively elected from the Bankipur Assembly Constituency, securing victories in 2010, 2015, 2020, and 2025, thereby becoming a five-time MLA. He has also held key portfolios like Road Construction, Urban Development & Housing and Law in the Bihar Government as a Cabinet Minister.

Alongside his legislative career, Nabin has played a significant role in party organisation, holding national and state-level leadership positions. He has also been entrusted with important organisational responsibilities in states such as Sikkim and Chhattisgarh.

While security is important, I hope the cost of this Z-category cover is justified. Taxpayers' money is involved. There should be transparency on the threat assessment that necessitated this level of protection.

Nitin Nabin ji has a solid track record from Bihar. A five-time MLA and former minister understands the ground reality. Wishing him the best in his new national role. The security is a necessary formality for such positions.

It's interesting to see leaders from states like Bihar getting such prominent national roles. Shows the party's reach. Hope he uses his administrative experience well for the organization.

Z-category means a lot of personnel and resources. In a way, it restricts a leader's direct contact with the public. Hope it doesn't create a barrier between him and the karyakartas on the ground.

Following Indian politics from abroad. The security protocols for senior politicians seem very extensive compared to many other democracies. It reflects the unique challenges faced here. Wishing him safety and success.
