Nagpur is on high alert after an anonymous letter claimed radioactive material was planted at key locations, including the RSS headquarters and a BJP office. Police are investigating the threat, with extensive searches underway.
The Nagpur Anti Terrorism Squad unit has arrested a Jaish-e-Mohammed terrorist from Jammu and Kashmir who had allegedly conducted a recce of Dr Hedgewar Smriti Bhawan of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) in Nagpur, Maharashtra, last year, an official said on Wednesday.
He emphasised the need to get over with election rhetoric and focus on problems facing the nation.
A simulated security scare situation was created wherein four "terrorists" entered the RSS building, the official said late night.
'It is our right to not go there and pay a visit. It is the prerogative of every party on whether to visit a particular place or not'
