The collaboration aims to bolster the capabilities of law enforcement personnel through a series of comprehensive programs designed to address contemporary challenges in policing.
The arrests came hours after a third explosion took place on Wednesday midnight in Galiara, the pathway and park around the Golden Temple, behind Guru Ramdas Ji Niwas (inn) building, the police said.
Police teams recovered 2.5 kg heroin and over three quintals of poppy husk, narcotics, pharma drugs and huge quantity of illicit liquor and lahan (raw material used to make liquor) during the statewide operation.
After visiting the site of the blasts, the DGP said the triggering mechanism or detonator was not found which means it was a crudely-assembled low-intensity explosive device.
