DIG Border Range Sandeep Goyal said that intelligence inputs indicate the consignment was sent by Rinda, a criminal-turned-terrorist operating from Pakistani soil. He is believed to be working with full support from Pakistan’s intelligence agency, the Inter Service Intelligence (ISI).

Editorial Perspective

If such weapon consignments are seized and the Pakistan-based elements sending them are eliminated, many of India’s security-related problems would come to an end.
