Private guards for sarkari assets

You and I are not the only ones worried about our private properties being encroached upon. It is learnt that the Union Housing and Urban Affairs Ministry is thinking of hiring a private security agency to protect vacant government land, bungalows, and flats from encroachment. The Central Public Works Department has been given the task of deploying private security guards, preferably ex-serviceman, for this. A security agency will be hired for a year and it deploy such guards on vacant properties round the clock. The agency will be responsible for their conduct.
