B.S. Sial, director general of police of the state, said two militants were arrested after a gunfight in Mysore, 150 kilometres (93 miles) south-west of the state capital Bangalore late Thursday.
"A satellite phone, a laptop and an AK-47 rifle was seized from them," Sial said. "Documents seized reveal they are from Pakistan."
Mysore police commissioner Pravin Sood said the two were travelling on a motorcycle when they were caught.
"Two policemen were injured in the gunfight which followed. On interrogation, the militants said they were part of an advance team to do a survey on how to blow up the legislative assembly in Bangalore," Sood told AFP.
