Rajasthan ATS and police have arrested two people from Gurdaspur, Punjab, in connection with the 3 November railway track blast on the Anupgarh-Suratgarh line in Sriganganagar. The accused, Mahakdeep Kaur (21) and Davinder Singh (23), were taken into custody on Saturday, 14 November. Police recovered two weapons, 46 cartridges and Rs 30,000 that a Pakistani agent had allegedly paid for the blast. According to TV9 Hindi, the woman is the main accused and was in contact with Pakistani agents named Shah and ‘Chacha’ through social media. The agents gave instructions and paid for the blast. The couple had earlier made two unsuccessful attempts to carry out the attack. Aaj Tak reports that the arrests were made in a joint operation by Rajasthan and Punjab police.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

Both TV9 Hindi and Aaj Tak report the same core facts: the arrests of Mahakdeep Kaur and Davinder Singh, the Pakistan link and the recovery of cash and weapons. TV9 Hindi provides more detail about the suspects’ past attempts and their contacts, while also framing the case as part of a larger Pakistani trend of targeting vulnerable women. Aaj Tak sticks to a tighter narrative, reporting the joint police operation and confirming the Pakistan connection without the broader commentary. The coverage is uniform on the key event, with TV9 Hindi adding investigative colour and Aaj Tak keeping to straight agency-style reporting. Both outlets name the same two accused and the same date of the blast. No conflict exists between them.
