BBMB postpones meeting amid security concerns
Babushahi Bureau
Chandigarh, October 30, 2025: The BBMB has scheduled its special meeting scheduled for October 31 at Bhakra Beas Bhawan, Sector 19, citing heightened security concerns. The meeting, which was expected to bring together senior officials from Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, Himachal Pradesh and the Union Government, was postponed after BBMB wrote to the SSP (Traffic & Security), Chandigarh requesting extensive security cover.
In its request, the Board urged deployment of explosive-detection devices, sniffer dogs, armed patrols and traffic constables to monitor vehicle access around the venue. The level of precaution—usually reserved for very high-risk events—highlighted the Board’s unease ahead of the meeting.
