BSE gets 'Z' security after terror attacks

'Z' category security is being provided at the Bombay Stock Exchange,
Asia's oldest stock exchange, after the financial capital was hit by
the worst ever terror attacks on the night of November 26.

According to a BSE spokesperson, the entire building is sealed and has
been cordoned off, with four to five commandos being stationed
permanently at the premises.

The Exchange, housed in the landmark Jeejeebhoy Towers, had earlier
been attacked during the 1993 serial blasts, that killed 300 people.
In February this year, Lashkar-e-Tayiba (LeT) militants had disclosed
to the Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) in Mumbai that they were planning to
target the exchange.

Apart from a large number of security personnel, BSE has also
installed a scanner at its main entrance and several closed circuit
televisions to monitor activity inside the building.
