Pranab loses way in Mumbai

Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee spent two hours last Saturday negotiating the crowded streets of Mumbai as his security detail blundered. Mukherjee, who has a Z-plus category security, was in Mumbai for a function to award the "best banks".

From the airport, he was to be taken straight to the venue at the Trident hotel in Bandra-Kurla Complex, which is about 10 or 15 minutes away. He was taken instead in the opposite direction to the Trident at Nariman Point.

An official in Mukherjee's office attributed the incident to a communication gap with the police escort. The matter will be taken up with the Maharashtra government and the Union Home Ministry, he said.
