Sukhbir Singh Badal could also be accorded the same security and a threat analysis report would soon be prepared and subject to it, the 'Z+' cover could be given to him. Badal's father and Punjab CM Prakash Singh Badal already has NSG 'black cats'. NSG, according to sources, had trained a special team of Punjab police commandos for these VIP security duties last year for three weeks and it was supposed to take over the security of the CM from NSG but it never happened. Giving a larger role to its women commandos, NSG has sent a special squad to its existing protectee and former Uttar Pradesh CM Mayawati and they have started moving along with her as her guard. A similar squad of women 'black cats' would also be added to the security of yet another 'Z+' protectee and Tamil Nadu CM J Jayalalithaa. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav was the last VIP to have got the NSG security cover late last year.
