"The National Investigative Agency, the National Security Guards and the Intelligence Bureau have all been engaged into the probe, assisted by the local police.

Meanwhile, the central govenment has put all major cities, including the Indian capital, Mumbai and the eastern city of Kolkata, on high alert, following the terror attacks. "A terror alert has been sounded in some major cities across India," the official said.
