Jammu, Aug 12: Senior Congress leader and Union Minister for Health and Family Welfare Ghulam Nabi Azad is reported to be high on the radar of Pakistan based terrorist outfit Lashkar-e-Toiba and the Home Ministry has asked for upping his security.
With intelligence agencies giving inputs that Union Health Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad and RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat could be the target of Lashker-e-Toiba, the Centre has asked all states to take special security precautions when the two leading figures visit their region.
Agencies quoting Union Home Ministry sources said the Centre has informed that Azad, a former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister, and Bhagwat are in the hit list of the Pakistan-based terror outfit and they could be targeted by the militants anywhere in the country.
Both Azad and Bhagwat enjoy Z-plus security with the former being accorded with the elite Black Cat commando protection with bullet-proof car.
The Centre told the states that proper sensitisation should be carried out when Azad and Bhagwat visit.
