Faridabad, Nov. 21, 2025 — The city around Delhi’s Red Fort was wracked by a car bomb that killed atleast 15 people. It injured over 20 others. Faridabad Police acted fast. They constituted a Special Investigation Team (SIT). This squad investigates connections between Al Falah University and a terrorist group.
The initiative is led by Haryana DGP O.P. Singh. He followed her to campus on Tuesday. First the group discovers an elaborate network. Next, they ask key questions. How did Al Falah University-connected doctors acquire explosives? They had relocated them from Faridabad to Delhi. And they were able to do so for years without notice.
Central agencies moved quickly too. A total of 25 locations were raided by NIA and ED. These sites link to the school. The SIT comprises two ACPs, an inspector and two sub-inspectors. Now, they track funding sources. They also map field operations and networks of support.

This blast is linked to a three-state “elite terror module”. It provokes safety fears at schools. A recent example is of Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) which even disallowed ‘Al Falah University’ in its North Zone Inter-University Cricket Tournament. However, parents protested on Saturday. Their concern is for their children’s safety. These are indicators of deeper issues, such as radicalization. So, we’ll start with a few key updates in this pivotal investigation.
How the SIT was formed: DGP’s Visit Triggers Chain of Events
The Tripura firing investigation began with DGP Singh’s visit. He visited the hostel of Chhatra Vihar in Tigaon village, Faridabad. There, he spoke with students. He then directed for the SIT to be constituted forthwith. The team was headed by commissioner and Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP). They went directly to the site. So, the administration went into higher gear from day one.
Early clues came from sources. Police had recovered 2,900 kg of explosives from Dr. Mujammil Shakeel’s rented houses. Tests paralleled these with the November 10 Red Fort blast outside Delhi Gate. The explosives, was in addition, sourced from Dhauj village, Faridabad.
The SIT has specific goals. They detail how the campus evolved as a “safe house.” This can include how they are stored, transported and escape. Detained people provide leads. For instance, a cabbie, a priest from Shahi Jama Masjid in Raipur village and an Urdu teacher are being questioned. The suicide bomber Dr. Umar Nabi is associated with the mosque. He visited often. Lawyers say some of the group’s members likely coordinated an attack there.
Background of Al Falah University: Positive Expansion and Developing Problems
The ED adds more facts. Al Falah University started in 1997. It’s a minority school with programs in medicine and engineering. The institution grew swiftly during the 1990s. But issues arose. The Crime Branch registered FIRs under the sections of cheating and forgery. The Association of Indian Universities also removed its membership.
Focusing on the Crisis: Details in Red Fort Blast
Quick Summary: Doctors, Explosives and a Secret Network of Spies
The Nov. 10 explosion left 13 dead. It hurt over 20. This unearthed a “white-collar terror network” in Delhi, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh. The NIA has now in its possession four accused persons for 10 days. Those include some doctors from Al Falah University, like Dr. Shakeel. Five years later, officers found explosives in hideouts he maintained near Faridabad.
Special Cell narratives focus on one man. 29 year old fugitive Indian Mujahideen member Mirza Shadab Baig also was a student at Al Falah University. He links the whole group.
On November 18, the ED had conducted searches at 25 places. They stretch across the capital and Faridabad. The case centers on money laundering. Officials suspect the group was plotting far larger attacks. Al-Falah also served as both recruiting and supply station.
Parents worry a lot. They worry current students are under a cloud of suspicion. So they protested outside the campus on Saturday. They call for measures to protect innocent children.
The SIT targets flaws too. They are bent not only on preventing their countrymen from carrying bombs undetected to Delhi from these local points.
Red Fort’s Dark Turn: Site of History Now Strikes Hard
Key Areas of Focus: Money, Helpers and Vulnerabilities
Delhi Police handles some parts. Two ACPs lead those efforts. Here’s The Indian Express report on the route from Dhauj to Delhi.
The SIT prepares the complete report on Al-Falah’s activities. It comprises two ACPs, one inspector and two sub-inspectors. Top tasks are:
- ED’s related investigation: Examining real estate funds and cash woes.
- Key risks: Radical chats or meetings could take place in hostels and mosques.
- Networks of aid: Find cab drivers, clerics and teachers who provided supplies.
This low-key probe traces the path of explosives – from Dhauj to Red Fort. It lists helpers and mistakes. “Two thousand nine hundred kilograms — how did they hide it and how were they moving?” asked one senior officer. The group is being directed by the DCP and Faridabad Commissioner.
The probe’s effects spread. Cricket matches were called off by AMU citing “security issues.” They also barred Al Falah’s team.
The Edge of the SIT: A Tightened Tool Under Terrorism
HERE’S WHAT TO READ INTO TODAY Unveiling the Web: Detention, Raids and Fugitive Roles
Custody exposes a state-spanning net. Planning took place at Al-Falah. Explosives came from Faridabad. Fugitives like Baig steered from the shadows. The NIA grills four suspects for 10 days.
Dr. Nabi’s visits to mosques in Raipur near a busy highway raise suspicions. These places built fast ties.
ED searches had unearthed laundering through groups connected to the school. Trustees now face review. The Crime Branch of New Delhi slapped additional FIRs for cheating and forgery. The school’s membership was terminated by the AIU.
Some parents are already gearing up for protests. They fear for the applicants to medical programs. They see it as the side effects of secret dangers.
NIA Front and Center – Leading the Charge
School to Alert Zone: Al Falah University and Faridabad Hit the Gas pedal
Al-Falah serves 5,000 students. It stresses medicine and engineering. This minority school now faces backlash. The cricket exclusion highlights growing rifts. Parents point out “collective mistrust” towards J&K students. It revives 2019 Pulwama anxieties. The Saturday protest calls for fair checks. They implore: “Investigate openly, clear the innocent.
On Faridabad’s factory zones, eyes now turn. Dhauj’s explosives link baffles local forces. DGP Singh’s visit results in state vows. Yet, community leaders worry that a prejudice eye follows.
The group’s white-collar mask — doctors were central players — revealed school weaknesses.

Bigger Picture: How the Threat Crosses State Lines
The blast case exposes a plot in detail. Explosives stashed in Faridabad rentals. Plans hatched at Al Falah University. The hit struck Delhi. Dr. Nabi took the suicide run. On the lam, Baig provided contacts. Clues suggest Indian Mujahideen’s comeback.
Funds are routed abroad through hawala but ED sources say it is not hawala. This brings in laundering charges.
Teams join forces. Once NIA, ED and state police are on the same page.. Longer custody holds mean advances. No aid could close Al-Falah. No faith hurts Faridabad.
