The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has arrested three individuals, including Gulam Rabbani, a leader of the Indian Secular Front (ISF), and two Congress workers, Shahdath Husaain and Asif Sheikh, in connection with the Malda violence case. Preliminary investigations suggest a multi-layered conspiracy and a pre-planned attack on April 1, which involved the gherao (siege) of the Block Development Officer's office in Kaliachak-II, Malda district, West Bengal, India. The unrest was sparked by mass deletions from the electoral rolls during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process. The Supreme Court ordered the Election Commission of India (ECI) to refer the matter to a central agency, stating that the incident was a deliberate attempt to disrupt judicial duties. The NIA's findings indicate that the violence was not spontaneous but orchestrated to destabilize the region, leading to road blockades across multiple Assembly constituencies.
