Guwahati, Jan 1 (IBNS) : Assam Police on Sunday, the first day of the new year, sounded high alert across the state following intelligence inputs of seven jehadis entry to the state.

According to the reports, seven jehadis of Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) had entered in Barak Valley Karimganj district from Bangladesh.

Assam Police ADGP Pallav Bhattacahrya said, "Following the intelligence input we have alerted all district police across the state."

“We have also contacted with the neighbouring states Manipur, Nagaland, Mizoram, Meghalaya, Tripura following the jehadi input by intelligence bureau,” the top police official said.

On the other hand, a top official of IB said that, the jehadi group had crossed the Indo-Bangladesh border last week and entered the Barak valley district.

“The jehadi group carrying with huge cache of arms, ammunition and explosives may be planned to create untoward situation in Assam,” the top IB official said.

In last year, West Bengal police had arrested six JMB terrorists including two bomb experts from various areas of Assam and West Bengal.

The Bangladeshi jehadi group was restructured following Burdwan blast on October 2, 2014.

“The new JMB group has tried to set up their bases and spreading network in Assam. The jehadi group also tried to create more sleeper cells in the north eastern Indian state,” the IB official said.
