New Delhi, April 6: A major security breach occurred at the Delhi Legislative Assembly this afternoon, April 6, after a masked man rammed a vehicle through a high-security gate. The intruder, driving a car with Uttar Pradesh registration, forced his way into the complex at approximately 2:00 PM, triggering an immediate alert across the Secretariat. After breaching the perimeter, the driver reportedly left a flower bouquet near the office of Assembly Speaker Vijender Gupta before fleeing the scene.

"The driver proceeded towards the office of Assembly Speaker Vijender Gupta and placed a flower bouquet near the porch before retreating," a Delhi Secretariat official confirmed. While the gesture appeared non-violent, the forceful entry and the driver's masked appearance have led authorities to treat the incident as a serious lapse in protocol.
Police Response and Investigation
Delhi Police and CRPF units stationed at the Assembly have launched a coordinated search operation to track the vehicle. Investigators are currently reviewing CCTV footage from the Assembly and surrounding roadways in North Delhi to identify the driver and determine the car's route. Preliminary inspections of the flower bouquet found no hazardous materials or explosives. However, some reports suggested that ink was also thrown toward the Speaker's vehicle during the chaotic sequence, though this has not been officially confirmed by the police.

Heightened Security Concerns in Delhi
The breach has raised urgent questions regarding the safety of the legislative complex, which is typically under multi-layer protection. This incident follows a string of recent security threats, including multiple bomb hoax emails received by the Assembly during the recently concluded budget session. Authorities have since tightened access to all entry points of the Vidhan Sabha. Speaker Vijender Gupta has sought a detailed report on the lapse, emphasising that such a breach at the heart of the city's administration is "deeply concerning".
