A manhunt for Sikh separatist leader Amritpal Singh, who demands the creation of Khalistan, entered its third day, with more than 100 people arrested. The authorities shut down mobile internet across Punjab to prevent misinformation and violence. Singh’s recent actions, including a violent raid on a police station, have intensified tensions in the state, leading to widespread arrests, including his uncle and driver. The situation remains under control, but the police are maintaining a heavy presence. Meanwhile, India summoned the UK diplomat after Singh’s supporters allegedly vandalized the Indian High Commission in London, raising diplomatic concerns.
