The Punjab Police Saturday said it has busted a terror module with the arrest of four operatives of the banned pro-Khalistan group Babbar Khalsa International.

"In a major breakthrough, @sasnagarpolice has busted a terrorist module and arrested 4 operatives of outfit BKI (Babar Khalsa International). The BKI module was tasked with targeted killings," Yadav posted on X.

The state police chief said the module was backed by Pakistan-based terrorist Harvinder Rinda who was providing them with logistical support with the help of the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI).
