The Punjab Police and the Border Security Force (BSF) had recovered a huge cache of weapons near the India-Pakistan border in the Khemkaran area on October 20. They had recovered 22 pistols, 44 magazines and 100 rounds of ammunition and also a kg of heroin.

Asked if RDX was used in the bomb, Chattopadhyaya said it has been sent for forensic examination and the type of explosive used will be known after the report comes.

Modi's appeal to the Sikh community comes two days after a blast took place in Punjab's Ludhiana district court complex.

Police suspect that the man killed in the blast on the second-floor toilet was trying to assemble or plant the explosive device.

Union Home Ministry sought a detailed report on the blast inside the district court complex. In a communication, the Union home ministry asked the Punjab government to send the report as early as possible, giving details of the incident.

The intensity of the blast was so huge that it damaged nearby walls and shattered window glasses.
