After Pune Cops told court about 'Rajiv Gandhi type' assassination plan were plotted to kill PM Modi, Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis gets two death threatening letters from Maoist organisations. In the letter, it was also asserted life threats to Mr Fadnavis family. Both letters mentioned the recent Gadchiroli encounters where several Maoists were gunned down.

Police are investigating, a Maharashtra Home Ministry Sources said. Earlier, Pune cops made a shocking revelation on Friday that they have intercepted the internal communication of Maoists planning and plotting in a 'Rajiv Gandhi type' assassination of Prime Minister Narendra Modi by "targeting his roadshows".


The letter read, "We are thinking along the lines of another Rajiv Gandhi type incident. It sounds suicidal and there is a good chance that we might fail but we feel that the party PB/CC must deliberate over our proposal. Targeting his roadshows could be an effective strategy."

The letter came in the cops hand after they held five people in Bhima-Koregaon case, including a Dalit activist, a professor and a former Prime Minister's Rural Development Fellow, were arrested on Wednesday for "links" with the banned Communist Party of India (Maoist).
