Security has been intensified in Tamil Nadu after Sri Lanka announced a ban on eleven Islamic terror groups, the Indian media reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to The Hindu newspaper, Tamil Nadu Police have beefed up security at airports following an alert fundamentalists may attempt to cross to India from Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are fears fundamentalists from Sri Lanka may attempt to enter Tamil Nadu by boat to seek shelter and lead operations against Sri Lanka from Indian soil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Attorney General (AG) Dappula de Livera had recently authorised the ban of 11 Islamic organizations in Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The organisations include the Sri Lanka Thawheed Jamaath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The AG\u2019s Coordinating Officer State Counsel Nishara Jayaratne said the Islamic organizations were proscribed due to their links to extremist activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The United Towheedh Jamaath, Ceylon Thawheed Jamath, Sri Lanka Thawheed Jamaath, All Ceylon Thowheedh Jama\u2019ath, Jamiyathul Ansaris Sunnaththul Mohamadiya, Dharul Adhar @Jamiul Adhar, Sri Lanka Islamic Student\u2019s Movement, Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, Al-Qaeda, Save the Pearls, and Super Muslim are among the organizations authorised to be proscribed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The move follows the Government\u2019s decision in March to proscribe a number of Tamil diaspora groups, including some influential organizations based in the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Government also banned a number of individuals based in the UK, Germany, Italy, Malaysia and several other countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
