In a massive crackdown on the network linking terrorists, gangsters, drug smugglers and traffickers based in India and abroad, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Tuesday conducted raids at a number of locations across the country.Raids were conducted at more than 50 locations in Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, Delhi and the National Capital Region (NCR). No arrests have been made so far, officials said.Last Friday, the NIA also conducted searches at a slew of locations, including the Poonch district of Jammu and Kashmir union territory, in connection with a drone delivery case. Raids were also conducted earlier in September.The crackdown by the anti-terror agency came after the Delhi Police Special Cell registered two cases under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) against 10 gangsters in August.Gangs reportedly operate from inside India's prisons as well as from abroad, not in isolation but as part of a deep-rooted conspiracy linking terrorists, gangsters and drug-smuggling cartels. Among the gangsters is Goldy Brar, who coordinated the murder of popular Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala from Canada.According to NIA officials, the criminals are also using cyberspace to publicize their crimes, which include extortion calls to businessmen and other civilians to sow terror among the public.

India Launches Massive Crackdown on Terrorist, Drug Trafficking Network at Home and Abroad
09:59 GMT 18.10.2022 (Updated: 05:52 GMT 16.07.2023) In a recently held security review meeting, Indian Home Minister Amit Shah was told about increased drone activity from across the border. According to India's Border Security Force, criminals from Pakistan are using drones to transport weapons and drugs into neighboring Jammu and Punjab.
In a massive crackdown on the network linking terrorists, gangsters, drug smugglers and traffickers based in India and abroad, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Tuesday
conducted raids at a number of locations across the country.
Raids were conducted at more than 50 locations in Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, Delhi and the National Capital Region (NCR). No arrests have been made so far, officials said.
Last Friday, the NIA also conducted searches at a slew of locations, including the Poonch district of Jammu and Kashmir union territory, in connection with
a drone delivery case. Raids were also conducted earlier in September.
Indian security forces have observed that as many as 191 drones have illegally entered the Indian territory in the past nine months from Pakistan, raising major concerns regarding internal security.

The crackdown by the anti-terror agency came after the Delhi Police Special Cell registered two cases under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) against 10 gangsters in August.
Gangs reportedly operate from inside India's prisons as well as from abroad, not in isolation but as part of a deep-rooted conspiracy linking terrorists, gangsters and drug-smuggling cartels. Among the gangsters is Goldy Brar, who coordinated the murder of popular Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala from Canada.
According to NIA officials, the criminals are also using cyberspace to publicize their crimes, which include extortion calls to businessmen and other civilians to sow terror among the public.
