A proposal to upgrade HRD Minister Smriti Irani's security cover has been pending for a while now. Last month, it became a talking point as the minister engaged in a war of words on Twitter with Congress spokesperson Priyanka Chaturvedi. Although there is no official word on the issue from the Home Ministry, the file on upgrading Irani's security cover from Y category to Z category is apparently pending with Home Minister Rajnath Singh for the past four months.
