Punjab On High Alert After Pakistan-Backed Terror Module Busted
16 September
A high alert was sounded in Punjab after the arrest of another four alleged members of a terrorist module that tried to blow up an oil tanker last month. It was the fourth terror module backed by Pakistan Intelligence agency ISI busted in the state over the last 40 days. Chief Minister Amarinder Singh has ordered the police to alert, especially in view of the opening of schools and other educational institutions as well as the coming festival season and next year's assembly polls.
High security will be put in place in busy areas, including markets and sensitive installations.
