"An intelligence report has clearly warned about terror threat to Raxaul railway station and terrorists threatened to target Delhi-bound
trains," Arya said.
Arya said that railway officials and district officials have been directed to increase vigilance at all railway stations and on trains. "We have directed
the railway police to thoroughly check trains at Raxaul before they depart," he said.
