The bomb blast in Pune is not a one-off attack, say the central and state governments, adding that the country should be prepared to ward off a series of similar attacks across other cities, given the pattern followed by the terrorist outfit — Indian Mujahideen (IM) allegedly operating under the instructions of the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) — believed to be responsible for the blast at German Bakery at Koregaon Park in Pune.
State home ministry sources cite Mumbai, Pune and Nagpur followed by Nashik and Aurangabad as on top of terrorists’ hit-lists; the latter two are being targeted for their religious importance, it is learnt.
“The outfit involved (LeT/IM) is known for executing a series of attacks, be it 26/11, Mumbai railway serial blasts or the blasts in three cities in July 2008. There are chances of similar attempts in the near future,” said a home department official after a meeting with the state police department on Sunday evening at the Mantralaya.
The IM could be further employed by Pakistan-based terror groups to carry out similar acts of terrorism in other cities, was the warning by Union home ministry sources as well.
Despite the home ministry’s earlier claims on having decimated the IM, it sounded an alert in Delhi, Kanpur and Indore fearing that groups like LeT and Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD) might foment trouble in these cities with IM as their local face.
Alarmed by fresh reports of the LeT-JuD nexus with the IM, the Centre has also asked state governments to remain vigilant and increase surveillance at key public places.
Highly-placed ministry sources admitted to the existence of IM sleeper cells in various cities, including Pune, where the outfit was allegedly used by LeT operative David Coleman Headley. Kanpur has also also been in the news about IM presence, which was exposed by a couple of incidents of bombs — assembled by its operatives — accidentally going off.
The presence of a Metro network, which also runs underground, and preparations for the Commonwealth Games reinforced Delhi as a target.
Of late, Indore, too, has reported IM activity. A BJP national executive meeting is to be held there this week, leading the Centre to sound an alert.
Sources further pointed out that central intelligence agencies had since October 2009 thrice alerted the Maharashtra government about a possible terrorist strike in Pune. The prime targets according to them were the Osho centre and a Chabad House.
Ostensibly finding the two impregnable, the terrorists settled for a soft target in German Bakery, a senior ministry official said.
Meanwhile, the intelligence and the security agencies of the Centre and the states have started a coordinated effort to expose the IM network and their Pakistan handlers. In this connection, a combined effort was being made, particularly with the Maharashtra SIT, to nab Mohsin Chaudhary, said to be one of the founder members of the IM and the brain behind Pune blast.
While most of the important IM activists were arrested by the police during the past two to three years, Chaudhary had managed to escape.

Traditional journalists at work in1940s
Journalism is activity or profession of being a journalist, a person who writes for newspapers or magazines or prepares news or features to be broadcast on radio or television.
Johann Carolus' Relation aller Fürnemmen und gedenckwürdigen Historien, published in 1605 in Strassburg, is often recognized as the first newspaper. The first successful English daily, The Daily Courant, was published from 1702 to 1735 From informal beginnings, stimulated by the arrival of mechanized printing—in due course by mass production and in the 20th century by electronic communications technology—today's journalistic enterprises include large corporations with global distribution that include newspapers, television and the Internet.
The formal status of journalism has varied historically and still varies greatly from country to country. The modern state and hierarchical power structures in general have tended to consider unrestricted flow of information as a potential threat, and inimical to their own proper function.
Censorship, governmental restriction or even active repression of individual journalists and non-state organs of communication continue to cause, at best, intermittent trouble in most countries. Few formal democracies and no authoritarian governments make provision for protection of press freedom implied by the term Fourth Estate.
The rise of internet technology, in particular the advent of blogging and social networking software, further destabilize journalism as defined traditionally, and its practitioners as a distinct professional category. Combined with the increasing transfer of advertising revenue from print and broadcast media to the internet, the full effect of the arrival of the "citizen journalist" — potentially positive (proliferation having thus far proved more difficult to police) as well as negative— is not yet known.

സര്കാരിന് ധൈര്യമുണ്ടാകുമോ? കാത്തിരുന്നു കാണേണ്ട വിഷയം തന്നെയാണ്. ഇനി ഒരു അങ്കത്തിനു കൂടി ബാല്യമുണ്ടെന്ന് ചന്ദ്രശേഖരരാവു. അന്ന് അയാള് നിരാഹാരം കിടന്നപ്പോള് എന്തിനു ധൃതി പിടിച് ഉറപ്പുനല്കി. എല്ലാം സംശയം നിറയുന്ന ചോദ്യങ്ങള്. കേന്ദ്രസര്ക്കാരിന്റെ രാഷ്ട്രീയ കൗശലം എത്രത്തോളം പ്രായോഗികമാകും എന്ന് നമുക്ക് കാത്തിരുന്നു കാണാം. എന്തായാലും ഒന്നുറപ്പ്, ആന്ധ്രാ രാഷ്ട്രീയം തിളച് മറിയും.![[thel.jpg]](http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9EZzZPrdGck/S2aglrjbBaI/AAAAAAAAAFQ/Lfi2Ml0ZR1I/s1600/thel.jpg)
തെലുങ്കാനയില് കേന്ദ്രസര്ക്കാര് എന്ത് നിലപാട് എടുക്കും എന്ന കാര്യത്തില് രാജ്യം ഉറ്റു നോക്കുകയാണ്. പരിഹരിക്കാന് ഏറെ ബുദ്ധിമുട്ടുള്ള ഊരാക്കുടുക്ക്. ആര്ക്ക് അനുകൂലമായ തീരുമാനമെടുതാലും ആന്ധ്ര തിളച്ചുമറിയും. ചന്ദ്രശേഖരരാവു നിരാഹാരം കിടന്നപ്പോള് വിചാരിച്ചു തെലുങ്കാന വന്നെന്ന്. പക്ഷേ പറ്റിച്ചേ പറ്റിച്ചേ എന്ന് രഹസ്യമായി പറയേണ്ടിവന്നു. ഇനിയാണ് ക്ലൈമാക്സ് നടക്കാന് പോകുന്നത്. തെലുങ്കാന രൂപീകരിച്ചാലും ഇല്ലെങ്കിലും ശക്തമായ സമരം ഉറപ്പു.
