Two improvised explosive devices were recovered in Punjab and Jammu and Kashmir after security agencies warned of a possible terror strike in the national capital by Lashkar-e-Taiba. Though officials have not formally linked the recoveries to the alert, the timing has heightened concern.
In Punjab, a suspicious bag near a police post in Amritsar was found to contain an IED. Bomb disposal teams reached the spot and safely defused the explosive following standard protocol.
On the same day, another IED was detected in Safapora area of Ganderbal district. The army’s bomb detection squad and local police neutralised the device within hours. It was the third such detection in North Kashmir in a week after similar recoveries in Tangmarg Road and Baramulla.
The discoveries came after intelligence inputs warned of a possible attack targeting religious and tourist locations in Delhi, including areas around Red Fort and temples in Chandni Chowk. Security has since been intensified across sensitive locations in the capital.
