The legislature stayed on tenterhooks even as reports came in that most likely the remainder of the terrorists in the Pathankot assault had been represented.

Still, the operations are not being canceled on the grounds that all information is presently established in that one bit of knowledge from an "outside nation" in the most recent week of December that over twelve terrorists had traversed from Pakistan to do a major assault.

The caution evaluated it to be a Lashkar-e-Taiba module, yet after the Pathankot assault, data has been accommodated to finish up this was the same gathering aside from it was Jaish-e-Mohammed and not LeT, exceedingly put sources told the Economic Times. Security offices got a fix on the gathering once they got to be dynamic in the Jammu-Pathankot locale, yet their stress is not all have been netted.

There's a much greater stress: Of the two that moved towards Delhi, there have been signs that one of them was perhaps in the Delhi Cantonment range, which neighbors the Delhi airplane terminal.

Cautions have been sounded around a conceivable assault on the air terminal and all aircrafts flying out of Delhi have been told to venture up security checks. Official sources said the number can go past two on the grounds that the introductory assessment was around 15 might have traversed. Representing the missing terrorists in the gathering is currently a national security need, an issue on which Head administrator was advised in subtle element. Later, the National Security Gathering likewise took supply of the circumstance as a more extensive pursuit was propelled.

Until this situation clears it's unlikely that the government would take a final call on the larger diplomatic effort with Pakistan because another terror strike cannot be ruled out at this stage. The alert sounded just before new year's eve and and after PM's return from Lahore, specifically mentioned Modi as a target besides the Parliament House and other key installations.

Concerted efforts are on to figure out whether the group of terrorists crossed on the same day or if some had crossed over earlier.

For this reason, the forces in Pathankot were asked to nab at least one terrorist alive to allow for his interrogation, but that did not happen. The combat potential of the terrorists is another factor that has the Centre worried. The gunfight in Pathankot, sources said, shows these are well-trained terrorists who are capable of an ambitious and audacious assault. For now, intelligence agencies are busy gathering details to trace the whereabouts of remaining terrorists.
