In a shocking turn of events, former chief of the Indian Space research organization, Madhavan Nair has received death threats. Madhavan Nair, 75, had been the chief of ISRO till 2009, and last year, he had joined Bharatiya Janata Party.

Two days back, Madhavan Nair had received a letter, where it was mentioned that in case he campaigns for/ endorses Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi as the elections are approaching, he will be murdered. Following this death threat received by him, Madhavan Nair approached Kerala Police.

It has been revealed that, this death threat was sent by Jaish E Mohammed terrorist outfit, which was behind the recent Pulwama attacks that killed 40 CRPF jawans. After initially denying the death threat received, Madhavan Nair revealed that intelligence has warned him of death threats and this has come across as a shocker.
