Rajasthan Anti Terrorist Squad will interrogate senior RSS leader Indresh Kumar whose name figured in the chargesheet filed in a court in the case relating to the 2007 blast, Dhariwal told reporters after coming out of the cabinet meeting in Jaipur.

"Kuch aur Sangh padadhikarion ke naam ujagar ho sakta hai...Indreshji se poochtach avashya karegi ATS (A few more names of Sangh functionaries could come to light in the case... ATS will certainly interrogate Indresh Kumar)", he said.

Asked to divulge the date when Kumar will be questioned, Dhariwal said it would be decided by the ATS investigating team.

Dhariwal had said on Tuesday that the ATS has concrete evidence against Kumar about his presence at a secret meeting held in a Gujarati Guest House here in October, 2005, and ATS would question him.

The chargesheet was filed by ATS in the court of Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate Jagendra Kumar Jain on October 22 in connection with the blast on the premises of the dargah of Khawaja Moinuddin Chishti that left three persons dead and 15 others injured.
