‘They lack courage’: BJP MLA claims Pakistan-based group threatened to kill him

‘They lack courage’: BJP MLA claims Pakistan-based group threatened to kill him

Bharatiya Janata Party MLA Loni Nand Kishor Gurjar from Uttar Pradesh claimed that a Pakistan-based organization threatened him with a bomb attack and murder on Sunday. Gurjar stated that he received a call from the Pakistan-based group, saying they would bomb his house and kill him. He responded by saying they lack the courage to do so.

Gurjar emphasized his lineage as descendants of Maharana Pratap and Chhatrapati Shivaji, indicating his readiness to confront the threat. He also noted Pakistan's precarious situation, stating it is on the brink of starvation, while India, under Prime Minister Modi, has become a country that responds firmly after centuries of facing attacks.

Gurjar highlighted India's surgical strikes as evidence of this. This threat follows a blast at a police outpost in Ghaziabad on Saturday, which injured one person. Police are investigating a social media post by an organization named Tehrik Ul Mujahideen, which claims responsibility for the blast that occurred late Friday night.

The explosion damaged the window panes of a police outpost in Vasundhara, Indirapuram. The police are yet to determine the intensity and motive behind the blast, but they suspect a terrorist angle.
