Bollywood actor Salman Khan\'s security has been beefed up following the murder of his close friend and former Maharashtra minister Baba Siddique. The Lawrence Bishnoi gang, responsible for Siddique\'s assassination, has been issuing threats to Khan for years, prompting the authorities to provide him with Y-plus security cover. This enhanced security arrangement includes a police escort vehicle accompanying Khan wherever he travels, along with 11 personnel, including two Personal Security Officers and additional armed police.\r\nIn India, security cover is categorized into various levels, including X, Y, Y-plus, Z, Z-plus, and the Special Protection Group (SPG).
