Editorial comment

What the American organisation knows is also known to the rest of the world and the United Nations, but none of them is doing anything to prevent it. Given this, India must abandon the soft approach and adopt an aggressive policy !

Washington DC (US) – According to the US Congressional Research Service (CRC), Pakistan is home to 12 of the most active terrorist organisations in the world. Out of these 12 organisations, 5 are targeting India, it said. Some of these organisations have been active in Pakistan since 1980, the report states.
