Therefore, the Delhi Police’s Special Cell had conducted raids at several main locations in the capital late on Wednesday.

The intelligence agencies have warned the state police that some newly-recruited Kashmiris terrorists have already entered the national capital to create the environment of terrorism in the city.

Several raids have been conducted in Delhi after intelligence agencies have warned the Delhi Police.

Reports claimed that a newly formed terror group -- al-Umar-Mujahideen - which has strong backing from Pakistan's ISI is likely to aide LeT, JeM in executing its nefarious designs.

Earlier, Indian Air Force bases in and around Jammu and Kashmir and Punjab were already put on alert after the inputs of possible Jaish-e-Mohammed suicide attack on Indian troops.
