On 5 Jan 2022 morning PM @narendramodi landed at Bathinda from where he was to go to the National Martyrs Memorial at Hussainiwala by helicopter. Due to rain and poor visibility, the Prime Minister waited for about 20 minutes for the weather to clear out.

Due to bad weather, it was decided that PM @narendramodi would visit National Marytrs Memorial via road, which would take more than two hours. He proceeded to travel by road after confirmation of necessary security arrangements by DGP Punjab Police.
PM Security Lapse 2

30 km away from National Martyrs Memorial in Hussainiwala, when PM @narendramodi ’s convoy reached a flyover, it was found that the road was blocked by some protestors.
PM was stuck on the flyover for 15-20 minutes. This was a major lapse in PM's security.

PM @narendramodi 's travel plan was communicated well in advance to #Punjab Government. As per procedure, they have to make necessary arrangements for logistics, security as well as keep a contingency plan ready.
PM Security Lapse 4

Only #Punjab Police knew about PM @narendramodi 's travel route. In view of the contingency plan Punjab Government should have deployed additional security to secure any movement by road.
Clearly, route plan was leaked.
Adequate security was not deployed.

Due to this security lapse, the worst in recent years, by #Punjab Government and Punjab Police, it was decided that PM @narendramodi would head back to Bathinda Airport.

Union Ministry of Home Affairs has taken cognisance of this massive security lapse and sought a detailed report from #Punjab Government. State Government has also been asked to fix responsibility for this lapse and take strict action.
