Gurdaspur (Punjab), November 15, 2026: Rajasthan Police, with the assistance of Gurdaspur Police, have arrested a 21-year-old man and a woman from villages in Gurdaspur district in connection with the November 3 blast on a railway track in Sri Ganganagar, Rajasthan.
The arrests come after investigators reportedly established a suspected Pakistani link to the incident. Senior police officials said the blast was allegedly carried out at the behest of Pakistan.
The accused have been identified as Davinder Singh, a resident of Chaura Kalan village in the Kalanaur area, and Mehakpreet Kaur, from Dostpur village. Both were reportedly picked up from their residences late Saturday night.
Police said weapons, ammunition and cash were recovered following their arrest. The accused are being questioned, and further details are expected to emerge during the investigation.
Mehakpreet Kaur’s mother, Sarabjit Kaur, said her daughter had been living independently and had earlier married against the family’s wishes. The marriage ended in divorce after six months, she said.
According to her mother, Mehakpreet left home two days before the November 3 blast, saying she was going to meet a friend. She returned four to five days later and remained confined to her room, frequently speaking to someone over the phone.
Her mother said she was unaware of whether her daughter had any involvement in the blast.
The investigation is underway.
