A major terror plot targeting the Ram Temple in Ayodhya has been foiled with the arrest of a suspect in Faridabad. The Gujarat Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS), with the assistance of the Faridabad Special Task Force (STF), apprehended the suspect, identified as Abdul Rahman, a resident of Uttar Pradesh. Two hand grenades were recovered from him, which were later defused by security agencies in Faridabad. Initial investigations have revealed a conspiracy to attack the Ram Temple.
According to sources, Abdul Rahman was in contact with Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) and was associated with multiple radical groups. He ran a mutton shop in Faizabad and also worked as an auto driver. As part of the alleged plot, he conducted reconnaissance of the Ram Temple multiple times and shared crucial information with ISI. He reportedly travelled by train from Faizabad to Faridabad, where he received hand grenades from a handler and was planning to return to Ayodhya before his arrest.

Abdul Rahman’s Interrogation Leads To Recovery Of 2 Live Hand Grenades
Acting on inputs from central agencies, the Gujarat ATS and Faridabad STF launched an operation, leading to Abdul Rahman’s arrest. During interrogation, he disclosed information about hidden weapons in Faridabad. A search operation was conducted at an abandoned house in the Pali area, where two live hand grenades were recovered after a four-hour-long intensive search. Strict security measures were enforced in the area during the operation, with civilian movement completely restricted.
Following his arrest on Sunday, 2 March 2025, Abdul Rahman was taken to Gujarat for further interrogation. Authorities also recovered radical material that could potentially confirm terror-related activities. Officials believe that his arrest has exposed a larger ISI-backed conspiracy, preventing a major terror attack in India.
The investigation is ongoing, and further action is expected against individuals linked to this terror network.
