Why is Al-Falah University under scanner?

Al-Falah University in Haryana's Faridabad district came under the scanner following the arrest of three doctors in connection with the "white-collar terror module" and the high-intensity explosion near Delhi's Red Fort.

On Monday evening, a high-intensity blast ripped through an explosive-laden car near Delhi's Red Fort metro station, killing 13 people and injuring several others.

Pulwama-based doctor Mohammad Umar Nabi, who was suspected to have been behind the wheels of the Hyundai i20, was an assistant professor at Al-Falah University.

Dr Muzammil Ganaie, who was among the arrested, was a teacher at the Al-Falah University.

Since the blast, raids were being conducted at multiple locations in Delhi. The national capital has been placed on high alert with strict vigil being maintained at the airport, railway stations and bus terminals.
