Jammu and Kashmir: Central Intelligence Agencies have warned security apparatus in Jammu and Kashmir of possible mischief by Pro-Khalistani elements during Prime Minister Narendra Modi's rally in Bakshi Stadium in Srinagar tomorrow afternoon. The agencies have sounded an alert based on multiple calls being made by Gurpatwant Pannu, designated terrorists and Chief of Sikhs for Justice to people to raise Pro- Khalistan and Pakistan flags to disrupt the rally of the Prime Minister.

Acting on the alert, the security apparatus is working round the clock to decimate any threat of such nature. "We aren't sure how real this threat can be on the ground as SFJ has no base or their over-ground cadres in Jammu and Kashmir. But the fact is that it is a VVIP visit, and nothing can be taken to chance. We are fully prepared for any threat," said an official.
