Kiran Bhai Patel was arrested for impersonating an Additional Director of the PMO, and he had three previous cases of cheating and forgery. He was arrested by alert security officials during his third visit to the Kashmir valley.

The Congress party criticized the Indian government for allowing an alleged conman, Kiran Patel, to misuse government facilities by impersonating a government official for over five months. The Congress leader, Pawan Khera, accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of being more dedicated to industrialist Gautam Adani than the security of the country. Khera questioned the country’s security system and the government’s decision to provide Patel with a Z+ security cover, allowing him to go to areas where civilians are not permitted to visit. He also questioned who had given the government the consent to play with the national security of the country, referring to the Patel case as a matter of national security.
Patel was arrested by security officials in Srinagar on March 3 during his third visit to the Kashmir valley. On March 2, the Crime Investigation Department (CID) of Jammu and Kashmir police provided information to the police about Patel’s arrival in Kashmir as a government official, leading to his arrest. Security officials recovered forged identity cards from Patel’s possession.
Khera criticized the government for allowing Patel to have Z+ security while thousands of Kashmiri Pandits were targeted and lost their lives without any security. He questioned the government’s governance in Kashmir and asked who they report to. Khera further criticized the Prime Minister for losing track of what was happening in the nation and asked the government on what grounds Patel was provided with Z+ security. Khera ended by asking if just having one’s name on a card was enough to get Z+ security.
