The Delhi High Court has directed that an additional private security officer be assigned to MP Pappu Yadav without delay.
The Delhi High Court today issued an order mandating the immediate assignment of an additional private security officer (PSO) to Member of Parliament Pappu Yadav of Purnia, Bihar. The directive was issued after concerns were raised about the MP’s personal security amid rising tensions in the region.
The court’s order requires the central government to ensure that the extra PSO is deployed without delay, and that all necessary arrangements are made to safeguard the MP during his official duties. Failure to comply with the directive could result in further legal action.

The central government has been notified of the order and is expected to respond within the stipulated time frame. The decision is expected to provide additional security coverage for the MP during his parliamentary and constituency work.
