College principal gets threat letter

A principal of a girls college here today received a threat letter, similar to the one received by Kota police SP few days back, demanding the release of suspected Indian Mujahideen terrorists arrested from the state recently.
Principal of Janki Devi Bajaj (JDB) Girls College, Hari Singh Meena found the letter in letter box of the college with threat of dire consequences if the terrorists arrested from Jaipur, Jodhpur and Sikar districts were not released.
SP, Kota city, also received a similar letter on Monday, following which high alert was sounded and security measures beefed up across the district and surrounding areas.

The letter was handed over to the police, Meena said, adding, "Security measures in the college premises were tightened. No student without identity card is allowed into the college."
As per initial inquiry, the letter to JDB college was found to be posted on the same date as the first letter - March 28, investigating officer and ASP, Rajan Dushyan said and confirmed "the content of both the letters was the same".
High security arrangements have been made to avoid any untoward incidents with extra police force at key points in the city including Railway station, bus stand, government schools, colleges and coaching institutions and CCTV cameras were also installed at the same points.

A meeting was also held with the representatives of coaching institutions, government and public schools and colleges and paying guest houses and they were given necessary instructions, the ASP said.

The district collector has issued an order asking paying guest house owners and landlords in the city to inform the police about visitors and tenants, Rajan said.
The threat letters are being investigated very minutely but no clue of the sender of the letters has surfaced so far, he said.
Five suspected IM terrorists were recently arrested from Rajasthan.
