The Prime Minister's Office (PMO) has reportedly called a meeting this week to discuss whether VIP vehicle should or shouldn't carry red beacon. Indianmandarins has learnt that the road transport ministry had forwarded three options to PMO after holding consultations with senior Cabinet ministers and one of the options is to end the use of red beacons. Another option is to reduce the list to only five constitutional authorities - the President, Vice-President, PM, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court and Speaker of Lok Sabha. The PMO meeting is considered important in the light of the fact that two newly formed state governments have already taken steps to either end or restrict the red beacon culture. While Amarinder Singh government in Punjab has done away with red beacons, Yogi Adityanath government in Uttar Pradesh has stopped the use of hooters. The Aam Aadmi Party government in Delhi was the first one to withdraw the use of red beacons by ministers.
