The explosives will be handed over at Anand Vihar Bus Terminal, one day before the attack”, The letter read. On the upper side of the letter, the holy Islamic numerical 786 and the word “Paigam” or Message is written.

Then there is a reference to upcoming PM Modi’s rally, which has to targeted by use of two kgs of RDX. The letter also states that around Rs 5 crores have been imparted for the sake of these attacks.
