Security has been tightened in the Jharkhand capital after U.S.-based designated terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun threatened to disrupt the fourth Test match between India and England in Ranchi, officials said.
Pannun, who has been designated as a terrorist by the Home Ministry, has also appealed to the banned CPI (Maoist) through a video uploaded on social media to disrupt the match, officials said.
The fourth Test will commence at the JSCA International Stadium Complex in Ranchi from February 23. The England team reached the city on Tuesday.
