Aam Aadmi Party member Bhagwant Mann live streamed a video on Facebook allegedly showing the details of the security arrangement in the premises of the Parliament, on Thursday, drawing a lot of criticism from other parties.

In the video, which went viral, Mann was seen showing entry gate through which MPs enter Parliament House and saying how strong is the security.

The car is registered with the Lok Sabha. It has a censor, which has the vehicle details. As soon as so you come near the gate, the censor identifies the car and announces the name and number of the car.

Mann said in the video

BJP’s RK Singh termed this act as “highly irresponsible” knowing that there “has already been an attack on the Parliament.”

Defending himself, Mann said he was only showing people how the Parliament functions.

Did my video pose a security threat to the parliament? Is it illegal, inappropriate to post a video which shows procedure of how questions are taken up in Parliament during question hour?

He said he would upload another video from the Parliament on Friday and that he can be sent a notice should there be any objections.
