Ranchi, June 2: Rajdesh Ratan, central secretary of Jharkhand Loktantrik Krantikari Morcha (JLKM), met Governor Santosh Gangwar to demand Z-category security for Dumri MLA Jayram Mahto, who is reportedly facing threats to his life.
In a memorandum submitted to the governor, Rajdesh Ratan stated that Jayram Mahto is a vocal advocate for the rights of the oppressed and marginalized, which has angered anti-social elements, increasing the risk to his life.

Rajdesh Ratan also informed that two months ago, he had written to Union Home Minister Amit Shah recommending Z-category protection for Jayram Mahto. However, no action has been taken so far.
He urged the governor to take suo moto cognizance of the matter and intervene promptly to prevent any untoward incident.
Z-category security typically involves deployment of around 55 security personnel, including 10-12 NSG commandos, Personal Security Officers (PSOs), and other police staff. This level of protection is provided to individuals facing serious threats to their life and requiring enhanced security measures.
