India alleged on Tuesday that Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) continued to support various terrorist outfits in order to spread violence in India. “… As per available intelligence inputs, Pakistan-based terrorist outfits, particularly Lashkar-e-Taiba (LT), Jaish-e-Mohammed, Hizbul Mujahideen etc., continue to receive support from ISI,” Indian Minister of State for Home Jitendra Singh told the Lok Sabha in a written reply, reported PTI.
He said the Indian government was committed to combating terrorism, extremism and separatism in all its forms and manifestations as no cases, genuine or imaginary, could justify terrorism. The government, he said, had taken various measures in this regard. Replying to another question, the minister said according to available information, investigation into terrorism related cases by state police forces and disclosures of arrested persons revealed names of a few terrorist elements in Bihar having links with the LT. “On the basis of inputs, four LT operatives of Bihar were identified and arrested between 2004 and 2009,” he said.
SPY MODULES: Singh also told the Lok Sabha a total of 46 Pakistan-backed spy modules were busted by the security forces since 2008 in the country. However, Singh said, no cases of espionage specifically by people working in foreign companies had been reported.
Well, this has been a well known fact that ISI continues to sponsor terrorism against India from a long time past and against Afganistan from recent past. This has been a key policy of Pakistan's military's power's that be.
Let us not forget the entire 9/11 bombings in USA were planned, financed and controlled from terrorist's safe havens in Pakistan. This kind of support could not have gone on without covert or overt support from Pakistani military.
Today's resignation of Pakistan's US ambassador again smacks of behind the scene ruthless control of politics in Pakistan by Military.
I am surprised and disgusted by the bankruptcy and cowardice of Pakistani people in tolerating the control of Military on civilians in Pakistan. Have they no self-respect?
