Amritpal Singh, a radical preacher, and Khalistan sympathizer was finally apprehended on Sunday in Moga, Punjab, after being on the run since March 18. The police had launched a massive crackdown against him and his outfit 'Waris Punjab De,' leading to several criminal cases being lodged against them, including attempts to murder, attacks on police personnel, and creating obstructions in public servants' lawful discharge of duty.

Sources have confirmed that Amritpal Singh has been arrested under the stringent National Security Act (NSA), and the move isn't a surprise to the public as the Punjab Police had already invoked this action against him. This arrest has finally brought to an end the hunt that began on March 28 in Hoshiarpur, where the police had received inputs that the radical preacher and his aides could be hiding.

Amritpal Singh had managed to evade the police for more than a month but had been active on social media during this time, posting videos and audio clips. In these posts, he had denied being a fugitive and had even challenged the police, claiming that he would soon appear before the world. He had also debunked rumors that he was negotiating his surrender and had called for a sarbat khalsa congregation to discuss issues related to the Sikh community.

 

The arrest of Amritpal Singh has brought relief to the Punjab Police and the state government, who had been facing pressure to apprehend him and his associates. This incident has also raised concerns about the growing influence of Khalistani sympathizers in the state and the need for a concerted effort to counter this threat.

The arrest of Amritpal Singh is significant, as it sends a strong message to other radical preachers and Khalistan sympathizers that the state will not tolerate any attempts to spread disharmony and disturb the peace. It is a reminder that the law will always catch up with those who try to subvert it.

 

Overall, the arrest of Amritpal Singh is a welcome development and a victory for the rule of law. It is a reminder that no one is above the law and that those who break it will be brought to justice. The state and its citizens can now breathe a sigh of relief, knowing that the threat has been neutralized.
