BJP leader Subramanian Swamy will get government accommodation from the Central government on security ground.
The government also allowed former Punjab DGP K P S Gill and Chairman of Anti-Terrorism Front M S Bitta to retain their accommodations on the same grounds.
Chief Minister of Uttarakhand Harish Rawat has also been allowed to retain government accommodation in the national capital on medical grounds, according to the decision taken by the Cabinet Committee on Accommodation (CCA) chaired by Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Friday.
CCA has also decided to allot government accommodation to A Surya Prakash, Chairman of Prasar Bharati for the period of his tenure. Sources said that the CCA also took into consideration that Swamy is a Z-category protectee with CRPF cover and his present place of residence lacks the required space for deployment of armed guards.
Swamy's security is being reviewed from time to time by Security Categorisation Committee in the Ministry of Home Affairs.
The government has allowed Gill and Bitta o retain their present government accommodation for three more years - till May, 2018 based on security considerations at special license fee of five times the normal.
Uttarakhand CM Rawat will be allowed to retain government accommodation for one more year in New Delhi on medical grounds and keeping in view that state government guest house is being demolished.
CCA also decided to allot government accommodation for Surya Prakash, Chairman of Prasar Bharati after taking into account the fact that appointment of Chairman and Members of the Board is made by the President of India on the recommendation of Selection Committee headed by Vice-President of India.
