Hindon air base in Ghaziabad has been put on an alert after security personnel arrested a terror suspect in the campus.  In wake of the arrest, the authorities have shut down two Kendriya Vidyalyas situated inside the campus.

The Hindon airbase is one of the largest airbases in the country, situated about 30 km north of New Delhi. As per another report on Hidustan Times, two unidentified men were spotted on the premises overnight.

 While one person have been arrested, police and security personnel are still searching for the other two. 

The report comes after three terror suspects who were arrested by the Delhi police earlier this week had reportedly revealed a plot to launch an attack at the Hindon air force base, just like JeM terrorists had done at the Pathankot airbase in January. The terror cell had also planned attacks on malls in Delhi.

More inputs awaited
