In a major breach of security and in a re-run of the Sippy blockbuster Sholay, seven youth climbed atop the water tank on the premises of secretariat, one of the high security areas in the state on Tuesday.

The incident caused panic in the corridors of the power as employees, officials and security personnel ran helter-skelter to prevent the situation going out of control.

The youth were angry over pending recruitment process of LDC in panchayati raj and to register their protest they climbed the overhead tank.

By evening , the administration of the secretariat was able to persuade them to come down. They were later taken to the police station. Speaking to media, one of the youth who had climbed the tank,  Amit Yadav, claimed that they had been asking for the recruitment which was pending for the last 4 years and nothing was done in this regard.

The incident has raised serious questions about the security at the secretariat and exposed chinks in the security arrangements of one the most guarded places in the state. What makes the incident more baffling is that it took place when cops and security guards were present on the premises.
