LeT threat: Multi city terror alert issued

New Delhi : Following intelligence of suspect Lashkar-e-Taiba infiltration through the Gujarat-Pakistan border, a multi-city terror alert has been issued to ensure no untoward incident happens and terror attacks are averted. Tier two cities like Lucknow, Jaipur, Vijaywada, Bhopal, Chandigarh, Ahmedabad and Panji have also been alerted about possible attacks.
Besides Delhi where the alert was specifically issued yesterday, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Cyberabad and Bangalore have also been alerted through security agencies.
According to the intelligence by Pakistan, while the terror suspects have entered India through Gujarat, there was no information on their subsequent movement which is why a multi city, pan India, alert was issued.Gujarat went on alert due to information that 10 terrorists have crossed over from Pakistan into the border state. The Centre had sent out a precautionary alert, calling for a heightened vigil, particularly in Delhi given that Parliament is in session. Earlier today, Home Minister Rajnath Singh chaired a high-level meeting on internal security in Delhi in the wake of the terror threat. Intelligence Bureau (IB) and the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) officials were also present for the meeting besides senior Home Ministry officials.
