Ujjain: The crackdown on terror suspects continued in Madhya Pradesh as police arrested four suspected members of Student Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) from Unhel in Ujjain on Thursday.
Police and and intelligence agencies were on high alert after explosion in Bhopal-Ujjain passenger train close to Shajapur.
The arrested suspects were being quizzed by police to know their 'plans'.
Talking to media, IG Law and Order, Makrand Deuskar, has said that the police had specified inputs about any possible terror strike on trains in Madhya Pradesh.
"Central agencies had again alerted state agencies post Indore-Patna train mishap," IG police said adding that GRP and RPF officers were intimated about these alerts.
Meanwhile, politics began in Madhya Pradesh over contradictory statements of police and politicians over the links of terror suspects with ISIS.
Madhya Pradesh chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan had claimed that the arrested suspects were linked to ISIS, while Uttar Pradesh ADG (Law and Order) Daljeet Chaduahry had claimed that the suspects were self-radicalised and there were no proofs to link them with ISIS.
Former union minister and senior Congress leader Jyotiraditya Scindia slammed Madhya Pradesh government over SIMI jailbreaks in Khandwa and Bhopal, arrest of persons having links with Pakistan spy agency ISI, recovery of telephone exchange and recent explosion in Bhopal-Ujjain passenger train.
Scindia termed these incidents as gross failure of the state government.
“The MP government after every incident remains busy in patting its own back,” Scindia said.
The Congress leaders also referred to contradictory statements of authorities in MP and UP over alleged ISIS hand in the recent train explosion.
