On Monday, the state police intensified the security to catch the radical preacher as soon as possible as the search entered its third day. A month ago, Amritpal Singh, the leader of “Waris De Punjab,” and his supporters burst into a police station brandishing weapons in order to demand the release of one of his aides. In the altercation, six police officers suffered injuries. The Punjab administration received a lot of criticism for the state’s law and order condition after the incident.

The suspension of mobile internet and SMS services has been extended by the Punjab government till Tuesday noon. According to the order made by the additional chief secretary, the broadband services are not being terminated to prevent disruptions to banking operations, medical services, and other crucial services.

112 Amritpal followers have been arrested thus far. The police launched flag marches and conducted searches all over the state in their quest for Amritpal.
