 "Anti-terror group cautions govt over Khalistan terrorists planning to attack India")
Expressing serious concern over reports that the Khalistan terror camp in Canada is plotting attacks in Punjab, the All-India Anti-Terrorist Front (AIATF) on Monday called on the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government to take strict actions against the people plotting terrorist activities with Pakistani Inter-Services Intelligence's (ISI's) funding.
AIATF chairman Maninderjeet Singh Bitta told ANI that more attacks would take place in the region if the ruling dispensation at the Centre doesn't do anything at the earliest.
"Narendra Modi's government is very strong and their fight against terrorism is quite clear. But I would like to caution the government that they need to take this seriously. Hence, I directly ask the government to take strict actions against people, who are plotting terrorist activities against Punjab through Pakistan's ISI funding," Bitta said.
The AIATF chairman's comment comes in wake of reports that pro-Khalistan terrorists are running a camp near Mission city in British Columbia to carry out strikes in Punjab.
According to reports, intelligence officers have prepared a document, which tells that Canadian Sikh Hardeep Nijjar has taken over as the operational head of Khalistan Terror Force and formed a module to carry out the attacks.
Nijjar, who is reportedly staying in Surrey since 1995, is a proclaimed terrorist in Punjab and wanted in connection with the 2007 Shingaar cinema blast in Ludhiana which claimed the lives of six people.
