NEW DELHI: Intelligence agencies are on alert to detect activities of al-Qaida's Indian sub-continent wing (AQIS) in the country. This comes just days after the outfit was slammed by the Islamic State.

The movements of AQIS chief Maulana Asim Umar, who is of Indian origin, is being closely tracked while sleeper cells in West Bengal and other states are being scanned for any subsequent communication, a source said.

While IS has asserted its presence through operations in neighbouring Bangladesh, AQIS will try to carry out a strike in India to regain its advantage, the source said. Agencies are trying to pre-empt such a strike as they believe AQIS will try to carry out an attack to prove they are no less in might than IS.

For now, the police agencies of Delhi, Mumbai and Puducherry have been asked to carry out threat assessment of French dignitaries/nationals and establishments in their areas and beef up their security, the source said.

AQIS had raised furore in May this year after it directly mentioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi in a video message released by its publicity wing as-Sahab. In the video titled 'From France to Bangladesh: The Dust Will Never Settle Down', Umar who is from Uttar Pradesh's Deoband mentioned Modi in the context of what he called as the war against Muslims.

IS slamming Qaida and Lashkar has paved the way for a competitive environment which makes an attack likely, sources said. IS treats Qaida as a rival not as a friend when it comes to international jihad, they said. IS has asserted that there was no rationale for "independent jihad organisations" as the time has come to unite behind a "single Quraysh Imam"-a reference to IS head Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi and a puritanical tradition that the Khalifah or Caliph must be from the Quraysh tribe.

Caliph must be from the Quraysh tribe.

See brother, you've got it in English, even they accept the hadith of Ali radi'Allahu an that the leader being from Quraysh. However, Mr Baghdad aka Elliot Shimon fails to meet the other conditions.

About this article, I don't think it's sound, we know the Hindustanis always want to show the goras that they are with them. They have a major inferiority complex. Make a fake account with a gora name and they'll come to you like cockroaches. I challenge anyone to prove me otherwise! Just try it.
