- 2 years ago
A massive crackdown was carried out by multiple agencies on the Popular Front of India (PFI) on September 22.
It was a well-coordinated, wide-scale operation against PFI. It took months of planning and coordination with multiple states and agencies. Security officials held meetings, talks with their counterparts very discreetly.
NSA Doval held meetings with the Kerala Police at a time when PM Modi visited Kochi. With directions from Amit Shah, the security team executed the operation with the NSA taking charge.
After Kerala, NSA moved to Mumbai.
Discussions to act against the PFI were on for the last three to four months. Midnight operations were launched by investigation agencies and police forces in 11 states. Over 105 PFI cadres have been arrested so far.
