In a significant operation in Punjab's SBS Nagar district, law enforcement uncovered a cache of ammunition, including two rocket-propelled grenades and five hand grenades, according to state police statements on Tuesday.
Director General of Police Gaurav Yadav stated that the findings suggest a coordinated effort by Pakistan's ISI and affiliated terror organizations to reactivate sleeper cells in Punjab. This insight was shared via social media.
The Punjab Police, in collaboration with a central agency, conducted an intelligence-led operation, discovering the arms in a forest area near Tibba Nangal Kular Road.
