Amritsar Temple Grenade Attack Demand for Central Agency Probe..

Amritsar : A shocking grenade attack took place at a temple in Amritsar, Punjab, creating panic among devotees and locals. The incident has sparked political and security concerns, with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) strongly condemning the attack and demanding a high-level investigation. BJP leaders have called for a probe by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), stating that the attack on a religious place is an attempt to disrupt communal harmony.

According to initial reports, unidentified assailants hurled a grenade at the temple premises late at night. Fortunately, there were no casualties, but the explosion caused damage to the temple’s outer structure. Security forces and forensic teams rushed to the site to collect evidence and examine the nature of the explosives used. The Punjab Police have also launched an investigation, and CCTV footage from the area is being analyzed to identify the perpetrators.

Union Minister and senior BJP leader have expressed serious concerns over the security lapse and urged the state government to take immediate action. They have also accused the ruling party in Punjab of failing to maintain law and order, citing previous incidents of violence and targeted attacks in the state. BJP spokespersons have emphasized that a central agency like the CBI or the National Investigation Agency (NIA) should take over the probe to ensure a fair and transparent investigation.

Local residents and religious organizations have also condemned the attack, demanding strict action against those responsible. Many believe that the incident could be part of a larger conspiracy to create unrest in Punjab. The attack has reignited concerns over rising security threats in the region, especially with increasing cases of targeted violence and cross-border terrorism.

The Punjab government has assured that strict action will be taken against the culprits, and security has been tightened around religious sites across the state. Meanwhile, intelligence agencies are also monitoring the situation closely to prevent any further incidents.

As the investigation continues, political parties and social organizations have urged people to maintain peace and harmony. The demand for a CBI probe is gaining momentum, and it remains to be seen whether the central government will step in to take charge of the case.
