National Security Advisior MK Narayanan has once again reiterated his belief, that Kerala and Tamil Nadu have pockets of people, who are lending help to the LTTE.

The statement comes just days after the 'Q' branch of the Tamil Nadu police siezed two boats that were being manufactured in Kerala for the LTTE. The police had siezed the boats being built at Munambam in Ernakulam district following leads, that they got from two LTTE cadre arrested in Thirichirapally in Tamil Nadu.

As National Security Advisor MK Narayanan quotes, "We have come to know that in Kerala and Tamil Nadu, in some pockets there are people, who are supporting the LTTE. The Central Intelligence Agencies are closely monitoring this situation."

The Director General of Police stated, "Sixty checkposts have been set up along the coastal areas of Tamil Nadu as part of enhanced security measures to prevent infiltration of extremist forces and LTTE activists."

In an informal chat with the media, the DGP claimed that specially trained police personnel, were maintaining a strict vigil all over Tamil Nadu and Kerala.

The DGP also added that there were no Naxalite activities in the state, as the department has succeeded in preventing their activities in the initial stage itself. The DGP commented on the issue after inaugurating the housing quarters for the Tamil Nadu Special Police 4th Battalion at Kovaipudur.
