Speaking to MiD DAY's Chandran Iyer, he advises the government and jawans to be wide-awake
How do you see the instances of terror and turmoil in our neighbouring countries?
What's happening in Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and especially in Pakistan is a matter of grave concern. The terror attack on Sri Lankan cricket team in Lahore yesterday has reinforced perceptions that Pakistan is unable to control the raging militancy on its soil.
Besides, such events can have a far-reaching effects on India and hence, it demands high-level attention from New Delhi.
Who do you think could be behind the attack?
It's quite premature to name anybody at this juncture. But the manner in which the attacks were carried on insinuates the involvement of Lashkar-e-Toiba, which works hand in glove with al-Qaida.
