New Delhi: The ongoing violence in Orissa has prompted the Centre to come down heavily on certain Hindu groups, accusing them of being involved in other cases as well.

As fingers point to SIMI in the aftermath of the Ahmedabad blasts, Minister of State for Home Affairs, Sri Prakash Jaiswal, has come on record to say Hindu fundamentalist groups are under suspicion as well.

Seven bombs were seized from the coaching centre in Kanpur on Tuesday, Jaiswal's constituency.

“Two persons were killed making bombs in Kanpur, they are from the Bajrang Dal,” he said.
