A National Investigation Agency (NIA) report state that at least 33 alleged Pakistani terrorists have crossed into India from the Punjab and Samba-Kathua sectors in Jammu &Kashmir since October 2017, reports The Print on February 7. The NIA report suggests that the terrorists may have infiltrated through the same sector that the attackers, who carried out the Pathankot Air Base attack and the Nagrota Army camp attack had used. According to the report, the standard operating procedure is to sneak in a group of five terrorists at a time. The Over Ground Workers (OGW) of terrorists help them with travel, stay and other logistics. Following the interrogation of two modules of arrested alleged OGWs, it was found that five terrorists had crossed over on the night 23-24 October 2017. On the intervening night of 30-31 December 2017, a group of another five terrorists crossed the border. This was followed by another group on the intervening night of 14-15 January 2018, 13-14 March, 13-14 April, 13-14 May and a group of three terrorists in the intervening night of 11-12 September 2018. Multiple intelligence inputs have revealed that over the past several months, Pakistan is changing its focus to the international border for infiltration. NIA report also details new launch pads that have allegedly been set up by Pakistan opposite the Jammu region. These launch pads have been set up opposite Kathua and Baniyal, Hiranagar, Samba and R.S. Pura sectors.

Punjab Chief Minister Chief Minister Captain (Retd.) Amarinder Singh on July 11 described the ban on the pro-Khalistan outfit Sikhs for Justice (SFJ) as the first step towards protecting the nation from the anti-India and secessionist plans and designs of the Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI)-backed organisation, reports India Today. He said the association should be declared a terror organisation. According to top Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) officials, "Central government has today sent a strong warning to fringe groups operating from foreign soils that it will not tolerate secessionist activities, whether carried out in India or abroad, and will take strong action against such entities under law."

The Central Government has empowered eight states, including Punjab and Delhi, with a “sizeable presence of Sikh population” to take action against Sikhs For Justice (SFJ) if they try “to brainwash Sikh community in favour of Khalistan movement”, reports The Economic Times on July 26. US-based SFJ was banned under Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) earlier this month "for openly espousing the cause of Khalistan" and "pushing for Sikh Referendum 2020." In its order, the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) noted, “..In exercise of the powers conferred by section 42 of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, 1967 (37 of 1967), the central government hereby directs that all powers exercisable by it under section 7 and section 8 of the said act shall be exercised also by the state governments of Punjab, Haryana, Jammu and Kashmir, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, government of National Capital Territory of Delhi and Chandigarh administration”. “Centre doesn't have the wherewithal or jurisdiction to implement the notification in these states. This notification deals with only those states which have a sizeable Sikh population and where the organisations like SFJ can play foul and try to brainwash Sikh community in favor of the Khalistan movement, through various means,” a senior UMHA official said. According to UMHA officials, there are 12 cases registered against SFJ in the past four years where 39 people have been arrested. "The group’s online supporters were over 2 lakh but physically it's only a group of 8-10 people," the official added. Recently, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) named legal advisor of SFJ, Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, in a first information report (FIR) for trying to raise funds and carrying out secessionist activities on ground as well as on social media with an intention to instigate members of Sikh community from India. Earlier, SFJ was named by India in its 23-page dossier on Kartarpur corridor handed over to Pakistan.

The Punjab Police suspect that the September 4 night Tarn Taran blast, which left two persons dead and one injured, could have links with terror organisations, reports The Tribune. A specialized post-blast investigation (PBI) team of the National Security Guards (NSG) has been asked to examine the blast site. The help of the National Investigation Agency (NIA) has also been requisitioned. Punjab Director General of Police (DGP) Dinkar Gupta said the nature of the blast raised some suspicion after which he sought help of the NIA and NSG. It was suspected that the two deceased and the person injured in the blast might have been assembling a crude bomb at the site. The police were conducting raids and questioning suspects to probe links of those killed in the blast with radical organisations. Earlier, two persons, identified as Harpreet Singh (20) and Vikram Singh (28) were killed and another one, Gurjant Singh (27) injured in a low-intensity blast in an agricultural field near Kaler village in Tarn Taran in Tarn Taran District on September 4 evening. Harpreet was a part-time carpenter, Vikram a mason, while Gurjant rears cattle to make a living. A two-member NIA team, which reached the blast site near Kaler village on the Tarn Taran-Khadur Sahib road on September 5, interacted with police and intelligence agencies.
