Huh? I think this may be less about “terrorist groups [that] may be planning attacks in India” and more about this administration’s plan to do something in/to Pakistan.
Another interesting note. The travel alert came out apparently too late for President George W. Bush to cancel his trip to India.

26/11: Heightened Alert - International Terrorism Monitor -— Paper No. 573
by B. Raman
SNIPPET: “As the first anniversary of the 26/11 terrorist strike by the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LET) in Mumbai approaches, there is a heightened alert by the security agencies to prevent any major terrorist strike coinciding with the anniversary by the LET itself or by other Pakistani and/or Indian organisations such as the Indian Mujahideen (IM) or the Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) . The terrorists would be calculating that a successful strike around the anniversary would damage the credibility of the Indian State in the eyes of its own people and the international community and strengthen their support base.
2. While it is primarily the responsibility of the State’s security agencies to thwart in time any fresh conspiracy by the terrorists, the public will have a useful role to play by sharing with the agencies any information or suspicious activity coming to its notice. The state agencies should create an awareness of the kind of role the public can play and as to how to convey any information or suspicions to the State agencies. Successful counter-terrorism depends on effective State-public co-operation.”
