New Delhi, Dec 28 (IANS) Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal Saturday again turned down request of Delhi Police to provide him security cover.

"As soon as Arvind Kejriwal left Delhi secretariat, we offered him security cover. But, he again refused our proposal," Special Commissioner of Police (Security) J.K. Sharma told IANS.

"Kejriwal told our cops to go back as he has no need for security," said Sharma, adding: "What should we do if he is not ready to accept the security proposal?"

He said officers were following him (Kejriwal) since Saturday morning, but now they have no option as he was still adamant on his decision.

Meanwhile, in a move against "VIP culture" opposed by Kejriwal and his Aam Aadmi Party, the cabinet decided red beacons on vehicles would only be allowed for essential services.

The cabinet also decided security to lawmakers would be allotted only on "threat perception".

The Supreme Court, earlier this month, slammed the rampant misuse of red beacon lights on cars, saying the practice had "perhaps no parallel in world democracies".

The court also criticised the "abysmal failure" of states and authorities concerned to "check misuse of vehicles with red lights on top".

Kejriwal, earlier this week, turned down security cover requests in Delhi and Ghaziabad where he lives.
