Many parts of Punjab have been tense following desecration of the Guru Granth Sahib.
On Sunday, Badal said he saw a "deep-rooted conspiracy by some powerful forces" trying to revive militancy in the state.
Violence in parts of south-west Punjab has left two people dead and many others injured. The Malwa belt has remained tense, amid protests and road blockades in the last one week.
