NEW DELHI: India Wednesday claimed that involvement of state actors in Pakistan with terrorist groups has come to light on a number of occasions, including in the 26/11 attacks, and that terror infrastructure continues to exist in the country.
"Inputs from central security agencies and through various open sources confirm that terrorist infrastructure continues to exist in Pakistan and Pakistan Kashmir by way of numerous training camps, communication centres and launching pads," Minister of State for Home Gurudas Kamat told Rajya Sabha in reply to a question.
He said that the government continues to be alert to these threats and has re-calibrated its measures to combat terrorism by way of reviewing threat perceptions and a number of important decisions and measures have been taken.
Pakistan confirmed this month that an agreement had been reached with India to resume dialogue “on all issues”, more than two years after peace talks collapsed.
New Delhi suspended a 2004 peace process between the two sides after the commando-style militant attacks in India’s commercial capital, blaming Pakistan-based militants for the deaths of 166 people.
The foreign ministry has said that Pakistan’s foreign minister will visit India by July.
