‘Doctor Module’ unmasked: 6 Delhi-NCR blasts planned for Dec 6 as Babri revenge plot

The explosion near Red Fort in Delhi has reportedly uncovered a terror module comprising medical professionals and affiliated with Jaish-e‑Mohammed and Ansar Ghazwat‑ul‑Hind that planned coordinated blasts at six locations across the Delhi-NCR region. 

A car laden with explosives detonated near the Red Fort metro area, killing at least 13 people and injuring over 20.

The probe has linked the vehicle and its driver, identified as Dr Umar Mohammad (alias Umar un-Nabi), a Kashmiri doctor working at Al Falah University in Faridabad. 

The Doctor Module & Their Plan

Sources detail that the group of doctors, including Dr Umar, Dr Muzammil Sheikh and Dr Shaheen Saeed, organised a five-phase plot. 

The stages- module formation; procurement of raw materials for IEDs, including ammunition from the Nuh and Gurgaon region; manufacture of chemical-IEDs; distribution among operatives; and execution of coordinated blasts. 

Their initial target date was August, but due to operational delays the group shifted to December 6, chosen as the anniversary of the demolition of the Babri Masjid.

In a Faridabad raid linked to the case, authorities reportedly recovered nearly 2,900 kg of explosive material believed to be ammonium nitrate. 

Investigators believe the car explosion may have been triggered in desperation after key arrests in the module. The probe is also examining trans-national links and whether the attack attempt counted as a ‘spectacular terror attack’ using multiple vehicle-borne IEDs and assault rifles. 

Officials describe the development as a worrying example of ‘white-collar’ terror, with professionals such as doctors and businessmen becoming part of radicalised modules.
 
The case underscores the challenge of detecting extremist networks operating under the cover of legitimate institutions.

The investigation continues, with multiple agencies collaborating to trace the full chain of conspiracy and dismantle any remaining cells.
