Delhi Police have placed the national capital on high alert after receiving intelligence inputs of a possible terror attack. The threat specifically targets government buildings and political party premises in Lutyens' Delhi, with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) headquarters being a potential target. The warning comes after the arrest of nine members of a Pakistan-linked module linked to gangster Shahzad Bhatti, who has been known to act as a proxy for ISI.

In light of the threat, police have intensified security at the BJP headquarters and other important offices in New Delhi. A senior officer was quoted as saying by Hindustan Times, "We received inputs that BJP headquarters could be targeted in a terror attack." The officer added that they are also keeping an eye on nearby government offices and Lutyens's area due to last year's car bombing near Red Fort.

The Pakistan-linked module was allegedly involved in recruiting foot soldiers through social media platforms. They were tasked with random firing at security personnel in North India and Delhi-NCR; some were also allegedly involved in arms trafficking for Bhatti's network. Investigations revealed that operatives were instructed to open random fire at security personnel to create panic and chaos.

Authorities also found evidence of an espionage network with solar-powered CCTV cameras installed near military zones to monitor troop movements. Plans for grenade attacks targeting crowded eateries along major highways were also discovered. The group had already conducted reconnaissance of a historic temple in Delhi, sending video footage across the border for planning purposes.

In response to these threats, Delhi Police have stepped up security deployment across the capital. This includes intensive frisking and vehicle checks at key entry and exit points into Delhi. CCTV surveillance has also been increased in high-risk zones, including the Red Fort and other prominent heritage sites. Authorities have issued a public advisory asking citizens to report any suspicious activity or unattended objects immediately.
