New Delhi, June 6 (IANS) Union Home Minister and BJP President Amit Shah is likely to be allotted a government accommodation which was earlier with former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee since 2004 till his death last year. Shah's new address 6-A Krishna Menon Marg in central Delhi comes under Special Protection Group (SPG) umbrella.

"The offcial bunglow of former Prime Minister Vajpayee on Krishna Menon Marg has been allotted to the Home Minister," a source said.
