AMRITSAR: Punjab state police busted a major terror plot after it arrested three suspecting terrorists from Hoshiarpur. They also seized three pistols and a dozen bulletproof jackets. Following the attack on the Pathankot airbase earlier this year, the state police have been on high alert. The attack saw the death of seven security personnel and the three infiltrators who stormed into the area. Recent reports suggest that Pakistan-based terror organisations like the Lashkar-e-Toiba and Jaish-e-MOhammed have set up terror camps in their Punjab province, next to the Indian borders.
