POLICE RAIDS ON
EXTREMISTS' HOMES
New Delhi, Feb. 2. Pandit Nehru, Prime Minister, solemnly promised the Indian legislature in the name of Gandhi today to put down violence in the country. In a matter of hours, the police in Delhi and other cities began raiding the homes and offices of Hindu extremists.
It is believed an extremist plot resulted in the slaying of the Mahatma. The raids were on the haunts of members of the extremist groups Rashtriya Sevak Sangh and the Hindu organisation. Mahasabha.
