The threat is a chilling reminder of the growing confidence of the anti-national and fascist forces who want to exterminate all dissenting voices with silence,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Khetan, who is the vice chairman of Dialogue and Development Commission of Delhi, had sought a ban on right- wing organisation, Sanatan Sanstha, and a CBI probe monitored by the apex court into the alleged death threats.<\/p>\n<p>He had also sought police protection following the alleged threats from several right-wing outfits and formulation of guidelines for protection of people who get death threats.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The petitioner herein respectfully submits that there are right-wing extremist organisations active in the country today.
