Terrorism and Counterterrorism

Punjab Police arrest two terrorists in Amritsar, seizing grenade and launcher linked to ISI.

In a significant counter-terrorism operation, Punjab Police arrested two operatives, Mehakdeep Singh and Aditya, in Amritsar, seizing a rocket-propelled grenade (RPG) and launcher intended for a targeted attack. The arrests were made following intelligence inputs linking the duo to Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), with the weapon reportedly delivered via drone. Investigations are ongoing to uncover the broader network involved, including connections to Harpreet Singh, currently imprisoned, who directed the operation. This incident underscores the persistent threat of cross-border terrorism in India and highlights the effectiveness of coordinated intelligence efforts to thwart such attacks, reinforcing the need for vigilance in national security strategies.
