"We have arrested three men and recovered 1,020 live cartridges from them. The arrests were made from near Welcome metro station here," said Special Commissioner (Special Cell) S N Shrivastava.
Their interrogation has so far not revealed any terror angle but security agencies have taken this development seriously and taken precautionary measures.
Those arrested have been identified as Mohd Imraan, a resident of Sitapur, Sharik, a resident of Meerut, and Faheem, a resident of Uttarakhand.
