Calling Bhubaneswar as “Terror” City not “Temple” City, Khalistani extremist and head of the Sikhs for Justice (SFI) outfit, Gurpatwant Singh Pannun released a video message stating that Modi-Shah-Doval are bringing the biggest security threat to Bhubaneswar.
Releasing a video, Pannun urged his supporters and followers to ‘disguise and take cover in temples or hotels in Bhubaneswar’ to disrupt the three-day DG-IG conference.
Pannun stated that it was not a conference but a meeting to plan and orchestrate killings of pro-Khalistani Sikhs, Kashmiri fighters, Naxals and Maoists under the influence of violent Hindutva ideology.
The entire city has been placed under CCTV surveillance. Biju Patnaik International Airport (BPIA), Raj Bhawan, Lok Seva Bhawan, the state guesthouse, and the IPS mess at Maitri Vihar, as well as the connecting routes have been declared as the no-fly zones during the conference.
