  • CISF Takes Over Parliament Security After The Dec 13 Failure

    The Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) has taken over the security of Indian Parliament (Sansad Bhawan) after the incident when 2 miscreants on 13 Dec 2023 entered the Lok Sabha with gas canisters.

    The parliament security was earlier being handled by the Delhi Police Special Cell.

    CISF is one of the 7 paramilitary organizations under the Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF) headed by the Indian Home Minister.

    What is CISF?

    CISF or the Central Industrial Police Force is the law enforcement and security organization responsible to protect critical industrial and public infrastructure such as mines, oil fields, atomic power, ISRO, DRDO, steel plants, etc. Typically they operate with other law enforcement agencies such as State Industrial Security Forces and local police.

    It was setup under the CISF act of the Indian Parliament on 15 March 1969. Later it was categorized as an armed force under Act 14 of 1983.

    As of December 2023, it has a sanctioned strength of 1,80,000 personnel.

  • The Saga of Unknown Gunmen: US, Canada, UK, Czechia, PoK and Pakistan

He has been known to have proven connections with Khalistani Terror groups such as Babbar Khalsa, Khalistan Tiger Force, Sikhs for Justice, and several other terror groups.

    Avtar Singh Khanda

    He was a Pakistani Sikh Separatist in the United Kingdom. He died in Sandwell Hospital, Birmingham due to Stage-4 blood cancer on 15 June 2023. His cancer was sudden because a few months prior in March 2023 he actively took part in violent protests against Indian Embassy.

    He had another name Ranjodh Singh (possibly fake).

    His father, Kulwant Singh Khukrana, was a known Khalistan Liberation Front terrorist and was instrumental in radicalization in India. His father was gunned down by security forces in 1991. His mother too was related to another Khalistani Liberation Front terrorist, Gurjant Singh Budhsingwala.

    6. Afghanistan

    Aijaz Ahmed Ahangar

    Aijaz was a key terrorist associated with the Islamic State Khorasan and was found dead in Kunar Province, Afghanistan. It is believed that he was killed by the Taliban Government.

    Who are the Unknown Gunmen? An Intelligent Guess

    The unknown gunmen might be the political or criminal rivals of the people who have been killed.

    I have came to the conclusion after watching several podcasts and previous modus operandi of Indian intelligence in the Kashmir valley.

    This is because almost all of those killed had a good exposure to the world of crime including drugs, weapons, terror, smuggling, guns for hire, etc. It would have been very easy for someone to tip off their rival gangs or criminals to do the job instead of hiring a gunmen through Indian Govt officials like the US suggests.

  • Dawood Latest Poisoned by The Infamous Unknown Gunmen

    Dawood Ibrahim, the infamous gangster turned terrorist has reportedly been poisoned in Karachi. Though Pakistan denies that Dawood is present on its territory, yet during many occasions he was spotted being present in the country.

    It is unknown who might have poised them but it has been alleged the NSA Ajit Doval might know who were the people involved.

    Dawood’s Terror History

    Dawood started stealing in an early age, probably during his teens. By the age of 25 he had his own gang with his brother Shabir Ibrahim.

    Initial Crimes

    Dawood rose in the world of crime with his smuggling, extortion and drug trafficking.

    He then went to Dubai in 1986 after being wanted by the Mumbai Police for the murder of Samad Khan.

    1993 Mumbai Serial Blasts

    Dawood became a designated terrorist in India after 1993 Mumbai Serial Blasts which killed more than 257 people and injured about 1400 more.

    The bombings took place on 12 March 1993 and involved a series of 12 blasts between 1:30 PM and 3:40 PM.

    The attacked locations were:

    1. Mahim Fisherman colony
    2. Zaveri Bazaar fort
    3. Dadar’s Plaza Cinema
    4. Katha Bazaar
    5. Hotel Sea Rock

    7. Air India Building
    8. Hotel Juhu Centaur
    9. Worli
    10. BSE
    11. Passport Office

    Sharad Pawar, then CM of Maharashtra lied that there were 13 blasts which later he told himself that he lied on purpose to mislead people that the terrorists could be from LTTE.

    US Designated Terrorist

    On October 16, 2003, United States Government designated Dawood Ibrahim as a terrorist Executive Order 13224. The different departments including Department of Treasury soon began rolling out press releases.

    The press release by Department of Treasury also said that Dawood was in relation with Al Qaida, having supported them and other terrorists in India.

    Sightings in Pakistan

    Pakistan has disclosed the home address of Dawood as White House, Near Saudi Mosque, Clifton, Karachi.

  • The Indian Parliament was Just Attacked with Gas Bombs

    Congress’s Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury said that the perpetrators were nabbed by MPs first and then by security forces. MP Gurjeet Singh Aujla was one of the MPs who acted bravely and nabbed the perpetrators.

    It is alleged that idea was to disrupt the proceedings or make a media stunt. However, it was still a grievous security lapse.

    How did they enter?

    There was a pass issued by Lok Sabha MP from Mysore, Pratap Simha for Sagar Sharma. The protestors entered the parliament through visitors gallery.

    Yet, this was a grevious security lapse as the yellow gas bomb which they carried might have been poisonous and could have caused more damage than the 2001 Parliament attacks.

    Police Response

    • Perpetrators were arrested and later brought to Parliament Street police station in Delhi.
    • Delhi Police Commissioner Sanjay Arora reached the parliament after the attack.
    • CRPF SG Anish Dayal Singh also arrived at the Parliament in late afternoon.
    • FSL Teams have also arrived at the incident.
    • Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla said 4 people were being investigated.
    • It later came out that there were 6 people involved and 5 of them stayed at a place in Gurugram before entering Delhi.
