Security forces will foil assassination bid on PM Modi, says MoS home

June 09, 2018 10:34

Minister of State for Home Hansraj Ahir has stated that the country's security forces will make sure that the alleged plot to assassinate Prime Minister Narendra Modi does not succeed.

"Security forces of the country will never let anything like this (assassination plot) happen. The government and ministry of home affairs will not pardon those behind this plan. Some arrests have been made, and the investigation is underway. I assure you, such criminals will not be forgiven," Ahir told ANI.

The Pune police on Friday revealed that they had intercepted an internal communication of Maoists plotting to kill Prime Minister Modi in a 'Rajiv Gandhi-type' assassination.

This came a day after the police told a court that the letter was seized from the residence of one of the five people who were arrested in connection with the Bhima-Koregaon violence.
