New Delhi: The Centre today said the Jaipur serial blasts smacked of a "deep-rooted and very well-planned conspiracy" to disturb communal harmony in the country and suggested that the links of the terror strike were in a "neighbouring" country.
Without specifying any country, Union Minister of State for Home Sriprakash Jaiswal told a press conference that it could be any of the neighbouring countries - Bangladesh, Pakistan, Nepal and Myanmar - that were facing internal turmoil.
After visiting the blasts sites, Jaiswal refused to specify the organisation which was suspected to be behind the explosions saying investigations were still on. "I will not like to name the dangerous outfits," he said.
To a specific query whether HuJI of Bangladesh was behind yesterday's attack, he remained evasive, merely saying that those involved would be "thoroughly exposed" very soon.
He said there could be a link between the Jaipur blast and those that had occurred in Varanasi, Faizabad, Ajmer and Hyderabad in the past. In most cases the hand of HuJI was suspected.
The Minister said though the outfit behind the incident aimed to disturb the communal harmony, it failed in its mission. "Rather the communal harmony has become stronger as people who did not fall prey to its nefarious designs," he said.
He said the blasts were carried out with the help of high intensity explosives like RDX or by using Ammonium Nitrate and the NSG team rushed from here would soon be able find out the nature of the materials used to carry out the blasts.
