Newly appointed Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha president Tejasvi Surya on Sunday said that Bengaluru had become a hub of terror activities and that he has requested Union minister home, Amit Shah, set up a branch of the National Investigative Agency (NIA) UN the city. 

Mr. Surya, who is MP for Bengaluru (South) constituency said that many terror modules had been busted in Bengaluru in the recent past. He added that “terrorist groups want to use the city as an incubation centre” for terror activities.

He said he had met Mr. Shah at the latter’s residence two days ago and emphasised the need to have a well-equipped and sufficiently staffed NIA office to mitigate terror-related activities in Karnataka.
