A senior
police officer said they had been warned that the attack might take place at
the port area, according to the PTI.
A high alert has been issued in the port area
following the warning.
Two naval ships -- INS Sumitra and INS Khukhri --
docked at the Kolkata port have been withdrawn following the threat, IANS adds.
The ships docked there on Monday evening and were
scheduled to stay there until Nov 6 as part of navy week celebrations.
Navy sources said the ships left for
"operational requirement" and added that they had "no idea"
about a terror threat.
INS Sumitra is an offshore patrol vehicle while
INS Khukri is a missile corvette.
