Kolkata, April 03: The metropolis was very much on the radar of terrorist groups “exported from a neighbouring country”, a top police official said today.
“Kolkata is very much on the radar of terrorists,” Commissioner of Kolkata Police Gautam Mohan Chakrabarti said.
The police were making every effort to make sure that terrorist outfits “exported from a neighbouring country” were unable to strike in the strategically located city, he said.
