Ministers and officers should not travel with “unnecessary” cars apart from the essential security vehicles, and should be sensitive to the problems faced by common people because of the unnecessary long cavalcade, he said.

A long convoy with a large number of security men also results in reduction of deployment of security forces at important places, Soren said. (IANS)
