Delhi Assembly Speaker Vijender Gupta on Tuesday said that prior to the commencement of house’s proceedings, certain objectionable emails were received on his official email ID, as well as on the Delhi Legislative Assembly’s email account.
Gupta, while speaking in the house, stated that the matter was of a sensitive nature and had direct implications on security, assuring the members that the concerned security agencies responded with utmost alertness and promptitude.
He said the matter was immediately examined and all necessary measures were undertaken keeping in view the safety and security of everyone in the complex.
