Terror outfit Al-Qaeda in Indian Subcontinent(AQIS) has issued a threat to attack multiple Indian cities and states over the controversial remarks by suspended Bharatiya Janata Party spokespersons against Prophet Muhammad.
Meanwhile, Congress and BJP have rushed Rajasthan MLAs to resorts to avoid horse-trading ahead of Rajya Sabha polls.
The BJP moved the majority of its Rajasthan MLAs to a resort at Jamdoli on the Jaipur-Agra route for a "training camp", days after the state's ruling Congress made a similar move. The Congress moved many of the party and Independent MLAs to a hotel in Udaipur, saying it fears horse-trading by the BJP.
