The report said that LeT, the terrorist organisation led by Hafiz Saeed, has been making attempts to establish a base in Uttar Pradesh's Varanasi in order unleash terror here.

Several LeT terrorists have done a recce of Varanasi in the last few months in this regard. According to the report, one terrorist Umar Madni and another from Nepal, camped in Varanasi for three days in May to establish Lashkar's network in the city.

Umar Madni, reportedly a recruiter of the Lashkar in India, was in Varanasi from May 7 to May 11 where he was lodged at a guesthouse. During his stay in Varanasi, Umar met several people, which smacked of some conspiracy.

Security forces, meanwhile, have keeping alert to sabotage wily plans of terrorists.
