In a significant development, Punjab Police have uncovered a major terror conspiracy linked to Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) following a blast in the Patiala freight corridor. During a joint operation by Patiala Police and the State Special Operations Cell (SSOC) in Amritsar, authorities seized a substantial cache of military-grade explosives, including a rocket-propelled grenade (RPG), an improvised explosive device (IED) weighing 2.296 kg, and approximately 1.456 kg of RDX.
