According to preliminary inputs, the vehicle — carrying a registration number from Uttar Pradesh — entered through Gate No. 2, an access point typically monitored under strict security protocols.

"The driver proceeded towards the office of Assembly Speaker Vijender Gupta and placed a flower bouquet near the porch before retreating," said a Delhi Secretariat official.

Security breach raises serious concerns The breach has triggered serious questions over the effectiveness of security arrangements at the Assembly complex, which regularly hosts senior political leaders and lawmakers.

The incident caused panic within the premises, prompting an immediate response from security agencies.

Officials indicated that the vehicle first rammed into a barrier before gaining entry, suggesting a possible lapse in access control mechanisms at one of the key gates.

CCTV scan underway, vehicle on the run Authorities have launched a probe to determine how the vehicle managed to enter a restricted zone despite multiple layers of security.
