Canada has recently listed India’s Bishnoi gang as a terrorist entity, marking a significant development in the global fight against organized crime. The Bishnoi gang, known for its involvement in various criminal activities including drug trafficking, extortion, and violence, operates primarily in the northern state of Punjab in India.
The decision to designate the Bishnoi gang as a terrorist entity was announced by the Canadian government on Wednesday, following a thorough review of the group’s activities and connections to organized crime. Public Safety Canada stated that the Bishnoi gang met the legal threshold to be considered a terrorist entity under Canadian law, citing their significant role in international drug trafficking networks.
The move has been welcomed by Indian authorities who have been cracking down on the Bishnoi gang’s operations in recent years. The gang, which has been linked to several high-profile criminal cases in India, is known for its use of violence and intimidation to maintain control over its illicit activities. Indian officials have long called for international cooperation to combat transnational organized crime syndicates like the Bishnoi gang.
The Bishnoi gang, however, has denied any involvement in terrorist activities and has dismissed the Canadian government’s decision as unfounded. They have accused both the Indian and Canadian authorities of pursuing a politically motivated agenda against them to undermine their reputation and operations.
This development highlights the increasing global efforts to tackle the growing threat of organized crime and terrorism, as countries work together to disrupt the networks that fuel such criminal activities. The listing of the Bishnoi gang as a terrorist entity by Canada signifies a significant step in this collaborative endeavor.
