![]() "A letter in the name of Lashkar-e-Tayyaba was received by railway officials in Hapur, Uttar Pradesh, six days ago, claming that an attack would happen at New Delhi, Ghaziabad, Meerut and other railway stations during the upcoming Holi festival," Rajiv Saxena, a senior northern railway official, told IANS yesterday. "Keeping in view the passenger flow, we have alerted the investigating agencies and adequate security measures have been taken. We get such threats every year, mostly at festival time, but no compromise on security is made," Saxena added. |
