Pak groups rope in Babbar Khalsa to launch attacks
NEW DELHI: As part of their larger plan to target prominent politicians and carry out blasts in India during Lok Sabha polls, Pakistan-based terror
groups have roped in Khalistani outfit Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) to carry out terror attacks — particularly in Punjab.
Indian intelligence agencies recently found out about a joint meeting between militants of Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jaish-e-Mohammed with BKI chief Wadhawan Singh in Rawalpindi in February where they planned terror attacks in Punjab during polls.
Wadhawan Singh, hiding in Pakistan, is one of the 40 most wanted terrorists who found place in New Delhi's list to Islamabad for deportation. Intelligence agencies believe that Singh has constantly been in touch with radical elements in the Sikh community to carry out his plan.
Sources in the agencies said the terrorist outfits had planned to take help of local BKI activists for logistics. Similar meeting had also taken place in December last year when Pak-based terror groups had planned to infiltrate their cadres through fenced western border in Punjab and Rajasthan, sources added.
Punjab will go to poll in the fourth and fifth phases on May 7 and 13. The home ministry has, meanwhile, alerted the state to take adequate measures in coordination with central intelligence and security agencies to thwart any such attempts.
Sources in the ministry said similar alerts had also been sent to other states and Union Territories as the government has intelligence inputs suggesting attacks on prominent politicians during the polls.
Agencies here believe that Wadhawan Singh continues to be a vital link between terrorists in other countries and some radical elements in the Sikh community in Punjab.
The intent of BKI and its patrons was evident in 2005 when investigation into the bombing of Liberty cinema in Delhi led to the arrest of its agent, Jagtar Singh Hawara, wanted for the assassination of former Punjab CM Beant Singh.
