New Delhi’s intelligence agencies have uncovered a chilling new conspiracy orchestrated from Pakistan. Rogue elements, backed by the ISI, are plotting to flood Punjab with drugs, weapons, and ammunition to revive the dormant Khalistan movement. A recent meeting in Lahore sealed the deal, with the banned Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) tasked to lead this dangerous operation.
The plan is insidious: smuggle massive consignments into Punjab to destabilize the state and fuel separatist sentiments. Excess supplies would then be routed to Jammu and Kashmir, escalating threats across India’s borders. Intelligence Bureau officials reveal that Khalistani operatives in Canada and elsewhere are pressuring the ISI, frustrated by their repeated failures in Punjab.
Punjab Police and central agencies have effectively thwarted these elements so far. The state’s youth have firmly rejected the idea of a separate ‘Khalistan nation.’ Radicalization attempts have flopped, largely thanks to elders who openly share the movement’s devastating past consequences.
Undeterred, BKI believes money and narcotics can buy loyalty where ideology fails. The Lahore meeting in Gulberg plotted an aggressive new strategy: lure vulnerable youth with drugs and cash. Punjab already grapples with a severe drug crisis, making it fertile ground for this tactic.
Agencies have intel on BKI stockpiling huge caches in ISI-provided warehouses in Lahore, Islamabad, and Faizabad. Recent shipments have arrived, with relentless pushes to infiltrate India. On the ground in Punjab, Khalistani groups lack support, but internationally, outfits like Sikhs for Justice (SFJ) thrive, holding sham referendums and spewing anti-India venom online.
These global players are now demanding more from Pakistan, questioning why operations inside India stall. To counter this multi-pronged threat, Indian agencies are ramping up surveillance and border vigilance, determined to crush the plot before it takes root.
