'<b>800 terror modules operating in India with external support'</b><!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Kuala Lumpur, August 12: Indian intelligence agencies have uncovered at least 800 terrorist cells in the country operating with âexternal support,â and are now looking for the brains behind them within India, National Security adviser M K Narayanan has said.
âWe are concerned that there is a great deal of external inspiration and support, we are also concerned and are looking at a mastermind within the country,â Narayanan told Singaporeâs Straits Times in an interview in Kuala Lumpur, when asked about investigations into the blasts that rocked Bangalore and Ahmedabad on consecutive days.
Narayanan said intelligence agents had âdisruptedâ several modules, some of which are ânot entirely foreign.â
âClearly, there is some kind of organisation. We have to find out if that organisation is localised or there is an external group or module operating,â he said without elaborating.
<b>He also expressed concern over the bombing of hospitals by terror outfits in Ahmedabad -- the first instance of a hospital being targeted by terrorists in India.
âCopycat systems are coming up,â</b> he said.
âLike putting bombs in vehicles near hospitals soon after blasts, knowing that large congregations will be there and impact will be much greater,â Narayanan said.

Can we trust Narayana or his sound beat? If he was unable to ban SIMI, how we can trust him? It is just his sound bites.
This man will do research only, typical babu, no action.
