Officials said one module had planned to attack Delhi’s Jantar Mantar during recent student protests, and members had travelled there with logistical support and materials to make petrol bombs. Amritsar commissioner of police Gurpreet Singh Bhullar said an ISI-backed handler arranged the support. Police recovered four petrol bombs, three illegal pistols, nine live cartridges, and a stolen motorcycle. The accused were also tasked with surveillance of security installations and filming videos for their handlers. Investigators are probing a wider network and tracing financial transactions. A CCTV camera installed near railway tracks is among the evidence handed over to the Government Railway Police. ## Coverage - hindustantimes.com - indiatoday.in Tags: Amritsar, ISI, Jantar Mantar, Punjab Police, terror module Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/punjab-police-allege-jantar-mantar-attack-plot-by-isi-linked-module/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
