Terror alert for Delhi over Lashkar-e-Taiba's plans of targeting temple near Red Fort: Report

Delhi is on high alert following intelligence reports suggesting that the terrorist organization Lashkar-e-Taiba is plotting an attack on a temple near the iconic Red Fort. Sources have indicated that this potential assault may be motivated by a desire for retribution related to a bombing incident that occurred on February 6 at a mosque in Islamabad, Pakistan. Authorities are taking the threat seriously, with security measures being heightened in sensitive areas. The Red Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, holds immense cultural significance and is often a focal point for national events. Given the recent surge in tensions in the region, law enforcement agencies are closely monitoring the situation to prevent any possible attacks. This alarming development comes amid ongoing concerns regarding terrorism and security in urban centers across India, underscoring the persistent threat posed by extremist groups. The government is urging citizens to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities, emphasizing the need for collective security in maintaining peace and safety in the capital city.
