Telangana CM KCR’s New Home to Have Bulletproof Bathroom  

Telangana CM K Chandrasekhar Rao will move into his newly constructed high-security, palatial new home in Begumpet on Thursday. According to reports KCR’s new home sprawls over one lakh square feet and has been fitted with bullet-proof glass (ventilators and windows).

According to a report in ToI, two bedrooms, the CM's and that of his son KTR, too have been fitted with the high-quality glass.

These measures are in tune with the recommendations of state intelligence officials.

More than 50 security personnel will be guarding the camp office-cum-residence 24x7, many of them armed, including members of the Intelligence Security Wing (ISW) which take cares of VIP security.

It is learnt that intelligence officials recommended the use of bullet-proof glasses as these rooms provide a line of sight and might be vulnerable to a sniper with a rifle. "One cannot take chances with the CM's security. While planning the security cover of VIPs in particular, it is important to negate every possible threat option. This house is going to be the official bungalow, therefore, the extra money spent on security will not go waste," a ToI report stated quoting a senior Telangana police officer.

The CM's new home will also have a "towering" compound wall to ensure nobody can peep inside.
