In the wake of terror attacks in Paris, Indian Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Tuesday said that the country was on full alert about the danger from the terror outfit.
“India is aware of the looming threat by the ISIS and is taking precautionary steps. The world needs to come together as one to combat ISIS,â€Â Rajnath told reporters.
“ISIS is not a threat for any particular country, but for the entire world. India is alert about ISIS,†he added.
According to reports, the Ministry of Home Affairs had released an advisory to all states regarding the looming threat from the terror outfit and has asked to keep a close watch on people who are suspected to have links with the ISIS across the country.
The world has been put on high alert following the deadly attacks in the French capital by the ISIS, which left 132 dead. The Islamic State warned in a new video Monday that countries taking part in airstrikes against Syria would suffer the same fate as France, and threatened to attack Washington, DC.
Major cities including London, Rome and Washington DC have taken high level precautions and heavy security has been beefed up across the nations.
