Journalists were shut out of ministries of external affairs and defence at Delhi’s South Block to prevent leaking of information and indulging in wild speculations. Forces are on high alert, convoy movement suspended. This also means soldiers can’t go on leave.

According to government data, as many as 1,708 terrorist incidents took place in the past five years, i.e. from 2014 to 2019. Last year, 614 cases were reported, which was almost three times of 222 cases in 2014.
