NIA conducts raids in Punjab and Haryana over gangster-terror nexus

New Delhi: The National Investigation Agency (NIA) conducted raids at nine locations in Punjab and Haryana on Wednesday as part of its probe into the gangster-terror nexus, officials confirmed.

The searches, which began early in the day, targeted eight locations in Punjab and one in Haryana, following specific intelligence inputs about individuals allegedly involved in facilitating criminal activities for terror organizations.

The operation is part of the NIA’s ongoing efforts to dismantle networks linked to the nexus. Last month, the agency conducted a similar crackdown at multiple locations in Punjab, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh, focusing on associates of the Davinder Bambiha syndicate.
