Be more watchful about terror activities, warns police chief

Police Commissioner of Cuttack and Bhubaneswar, Dr R P Sharma, today asked policemen to be more watchful about terrorist activities.
The warning came in the backdrop of the arrest of a suspected terrorist of Al Qaida from Cuttack by the Delhi police last month and the arrests of at least seven Bangladeshis by the Bhubaneswar police for allegedly trying to procure passport submitting fake documents.
"These incidents should not be ignored and the police should sincerely take note of the developments by generating its own sources and taking proactive measures to check such activities in the twin cities," Sharma, who will take charge as the new Director of vigilance on Wednesday, said.

"Unlike other parts in the country, particularly in North India and metro cities, there is no terrorist activities in Odisha," he said.
He mentioned that two Indian Mujaheedin activists were arrested from Odisha in 2013 but they were travelling in the state to evade arrest.
