India’s top interior security official on Monday promised tight security for October’s Commonwealth Games in New Delhi, but warned that militants could target other parts of the country.
The assurance came from Home (Interior) Secretary G.K Pillai just a week after a bomb in the western city of Pune underscored the challenge of securing all of the sprawling country of 1.2 billion people.
That attack, which killed 15 people and is suspected to have been carried out by home-grown Islamists, was the first major militant strike since the 2008 attacks on Mumbai.
“I can’t say that somebody will not sneak in,” Pillai said, “... but in Delhi he will find it extremely difficult.”
