NSA slapped as Amritpal seen as ISI pawn to revive militancy in Punjab

As for why Waaris Punjab De chief Amritpal was sent to the central jail in Dibrugarh, Assam, soon after his arrest, sources said this was done to rule out the possibility of a jailbreak with the support of like-minded Sikh prisoners or gangsters incarcerated in prisons across Punjab or other states in north India. Nine of Amritpal’s aides arrested earlier have been packed off to Assam.
