New Delhi: A team of Delhi Police is likely to visit Bodh Gaya town to share information provided by the Indian Mujahideen (IM) terrorists who had earlier planned an attack on the Mahabodhi temple, police said on Sunday.

"We will be sending a team to Bodh Gaya to share the information provided by the arrested IM operatives who had planned to carry out serial blasts in the Mahabodhi temple," a senior Delhi Police officer said.
