Bengaluru has become an epicenter for terrorist activities, BJP Tejasvi Deputy Surya said on Sunday, saying that he had asked the Union Interior Minister Amit Shah to establish a permanent division of the National Investigation Agency (NIA). ) in the city.
A day after becoming chairman of the BJP youth wing, Surya said that in the recent past many terrorist modules have been destroyed in Bengaluru, India’s Silicon Valley. Terrorist groups want to use the city as an “incubation center” for terrorist activities.

“The Interior Minister has ensured that he will instruct officials to establish a permanent police station staffed by an officer of the rank of the SP as soon as possible,” Surya said.
“In recent years, Bengaluru, India’s Silicon Valley, has become the epicenter of terrorist activities. It has been demonstrated through many arrests and sleeper terror cells busted by the investigative agency in the city,” Surya said. , who represents Bengaluru South Lok Sabha, told reporters.

Surya said there are reports that the NIA does not have enough infrastructure and human resources to conduct investigations. The NIA is currently operating with skeletal personnel and also from Hyderabad with only one camp office in Bengaluru.
As Bengaluru is the financial powerhouse of South India, it is vital to keep the city safe from all terrorist and anti-India organizations and their activity, he added.
On his new responsibility as director of Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM), Mr. Surya said that his first visit will be to Bihar, which is at the polls, to interact and meet the volunteers of the youth wing of the party.
“Yuva Morcha will foster more grassroots leadership across the country. A young Karyakarta (worker) like me has been entrusted with the responsibility of the national youth wing of the world’s largest political party in the world’s largest democracy and in the country. youngest in the world. This is possible only in the BJP, “he said.
Underlining that BJYM will continue to be a platform for all of the country’s youth, Surya said that he feels that the strongest leaders come from the weakest sectors of society. And you want to make sure that BJYM will be your platform.
