This comes in the wake of terrorist groups in Kashmir stating recently that they would lend support to the Khalistan terrorists. It may be recalled that Zakir Musa was last year spotted in Punjab, where he was trying to set up modules to assist the Khalistan forces.

Intelligence Bureau officials tell OneIndia that this development was on expected lines. The ISI has been nurturing the Khalistan terrorists for long. They have been making attempts to revive terrorism in Punjab. The ISI now intends to bring both the Islamic and Khalistan terrorists together and fight both in Kashmir as well as Punjab, the officer also said.

In the past few months, the Intelligence Bureau has come across several instances where the ISI backed Khalistan terror groups are spreading fake news in a bid to instigate violence in the state of Punjab.
