Mumbai, Ahmedabad put on terror alert
=======================================================
NEW DELHI: The Centre has put Mumbai and Ahmedabad on high alert after getting specific intelligence inputs that Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) cadres have already sneaked into these two cities to strike at any time in coming days.
"We alerted these two cities on Monday. House-to-house search is going on in both Mumbai and Ahmedabad as we have some location-specific intelligence inputs," said a senior home ministry official.
He said specific instructions have been issued for taking all possible steps to foil any attempt by LeT terrorists to unleash violence.
Additional forces have been deployed in all sensitive and crowded areas, including markets, religious places, bus and railway stations. "Special precautions are also being taken in view of huge gatherings at some places in both the cities considering their vulnerability during Christmas and New Year celebrations," said the official.
