The designated teams of the Central Intelligence agencies and the National Investigation Agency (NIA) on January 20 have reached the Bodh Gaya Pilgrimage Centre in Gaya District of Bihar after a low-density bomb exploded and two ‘alive’ bombs were recovered from the temple’s premises on the previous night, reports Daily News and Analysis.

"A series of calls were made to some locations in West Bengal from Bodh Gaya just before and after planting the three IEDs," the officer said, adding, "Calls were made to locations known to Indian security agencies as covert bases of JMB operating in WB for the past several years." He also said the technique used in making the three IEDs is far different from that by Indian Mujahideen (IM) in Bodh Gaya and Patna in 2013 or other places in the country in the past. Read less...
