Govt downplays US advisory on terror attacks

NEW DELHI: The government on Friday described as "very innocuous" the US Embassy advisory on possible Al-Qaida attacks in the national capital and Mumbai but refrained from commenting on the presence of foreign terrorists in the country.

"It is normal for a mission to issue advisories whenever they have information. ... It is a very innocuous advisory," Union Home Secretary V K Duggal told a press conference.

[...]

Duggal repeatedly ducked questions whether there was any presence of Al-Qaida in the country. "I have only seen the advisory and there is no intelligence input shared with us.
