Punjab Police recently arrested three militants
of KZF, a group demanding separate Sikh homeland called Khalistan
through armed struggle. A huge cache of weapons were also recovered
from their possession. The trio, arrested from Amritsar, was
in touch with handlers in Belgium, Pakistan and the UK. It is
believed they had direct links with Pakistan's ISI. Experts
believe the enforcement agencies must control illegal funding
to such organisations. Based in foreign countries, the pro-Khalistan
separatists are spreading venom against India and using social
media as a tool to spread misinformation. They enjoy the patronage
and funding by Pakistan.
