Unprecedented security for Narendra Modi’s swearing-in ceremony

Narendra Modi, who led BJP to an astounding victory in the Lok Sabha polls, will be sworn in as the Prime Minister on Monday in the forecourt of the majestic Rashtrapati Bhawan at a grand function to be attended by foreign dignitaries including SAARC leaders. 
 
The swearing-in ceremony of the 15th Prime Minister of India would be attended by nearly 3,000 guests, including top leaders from SAARC countries like Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapaksa. The presence of foreign leaders with high threat perception like Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapaksa at Narendra Modi's swearing in has led to a massive scale-up in security for the event on Monday.
 
More than 10,000 personnel are being deployed to secure the Rashtrapati Bhavan - where Modi will take the oath of office as Prime Minister on Monday evening - and hotels where top dignitaries are staying, as well as to manage traffic, making the security arrangement for the event on par with that for the Republic Day parade
