Indian Home Minister Amit Shah, in a statement issued on his X account on Monday, claimed that the Modi government has dismantled the ‘Shehzad Bhatti Network’, a militant organization supported by Pakistan’s intelligence agency ISI, before Independence Day, arresting more than 200 of its workers and foiling the organization’s plans for sabotage attacks.
He claimed that the Indian security forces dismantled the network by conducting coordinated operations at different locations in 14 states. Amit Shah called it an example of India’s ‘zero tolerance’ policy against terrorism.
Amit Shah said that a large quantity of arms and ammunition, including hand grenades with Pakistan Ordnance Factory markings, pistols, cartridges and CCTV cameras used for espionage, were also recovered from the network.
