Underworld don and now a "global terrorist", Dawood Ibrahim, has gained a substantial ground in Uttar Pradesh and Gujarat to destablise the law and order by fomenting communal tension, according to an intelligence report, reports PTI.

Dawood's D-company colluded with the ISI to create political instability and lawlessness and was concentrating on districts along the Indo-Nepal border, the report said.

It said that the D-company continued to maintain an important office in the Himalayan kingdom which monitored the flow of drugs and weapons in Uttar Pradesh.

The areas identified by the intelligence agencies as under Dawood's operation were Gorakhpur, Siddarth Nagar, gonad, Baharaich, Khiri, Pilibhit and Nanital districts.

The report said that the transport agencies and truck drivers were the main targets for their job besides the local criminals who were hired to eliminate any officer who created hindrance in smuggling of drugs and arms from Kathmandu.

The declaring of Dawood as a Global Terrorist by the United States was seen as a victory of the Indian intelligence agencies, who had submitted a dossier to the US authorities during the visit of Deputy Prime Minister L K Advani earlier this year.

The report, which also formed the part of dossier given to the US officials, said that Bharauch district in Gujarat was a favourite hideout for Dawood Ibrahim's gang.

It said that the ISI used Dawood's influence in this state to carryout its anti-national operations.
