Chandigarh, May 6 (UNI) Security agencies in Punjab have launched a massive investigation following twin explosions near high-security installations in Jalandhar and Amritsar.
On Tuesday night, an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) was detonated outside the Border Security Force (BSF) Frontier Headquarters in Jalandhar. While no injuries were reported, the blast was captured on video. Simultaneously, a grenade attack was attempted at an Army camp in Amritsar, though the explosive struck a perimeter wall and failed to breach the facility.
Punjab Director General of Police (DGP) Gaurav Yadav, who visited the sites to assess the situation, confirmed that initial findings point toward the involvement of Pakistani intelligence agencies. The DGP stated that the Jalandhar blast was likely triggered via a timer or remote control, possibly timed to coincide with the anniversary of "Operation Sindoor". He emphasized that Punjab has long been a target of proxy warfare and noted that several specialized teams are now working to uncover every aspect of the conspiracy.
