Like the cry for "azadi" in the Kashmir Valley, a significant body of sentiment in Tamil Nadu - including some of its top political icons, resonates with the ideology of Eelam, and the state has long been perceived as a region of strategic depth for the LTTE. Preventive patrols of the Indian Navy and the Coast Guard have been deployed in the Palk Straits as part of "Operation Tasha", and a number of LTTE gun-runners and smugglers have been intercepted. This vigil will have to be further strengthened. A fairly extensive network of LTTE supporters and local proxy agents has also been developed in Tamil Nadu, which is believed to have established working relationships with other terrorist groups in this country, from peninsular India to the Northeast The march of folly: Obama s four-word AfPak strategy Asian Age, 20 May 2009 By Brahma Chellaney May 20 : Now that the national election is over, Indian diplomacy will face demands to aid US President Barack Obama s strategy on Afghanistan- Pakistan (AfPak). To win greater Pakistani military cooperation on the Afghan frontier, Mr Obama is seeking New Delhi s assistance on at least two fronts border-troop reductions and a resumption of "peace" talks with Islamabad. India can assist to the extent that its own interests are safe. India has no offensively-configured troop formations along the Pakistan border, and any cut in border deployments must not provide the Pakistani military an opening to infiltrate more armed terrorists into India. New Delhi has no quarrel with
3 Pakistan s fledgling civilian government, but a renewed bilateral dialogue can be meaningful only if Islamabad goes beyond cosmetic measures against its military-nurtured, India-directed Punjabi terror groups, like the Lashkar-e- Tayyaba and Jaish-e-Mohammad s-four-word-afpak-strategy.aspx 26/11: More data provided to Pakistan Hindu, 21 May 2009 NEW DELHI: India on Wednesday handed over additional information to Pakistan on the involvement of its citizens in the Mumbai terror attacks. The External Affairs Ministry handed over to a diplomat of the Pakistan High Commission the details sought by Islamabad, official sources confirmed. The information consisted of the confessional statement of the lone surviving gunman, Ajmal Amir Kasab and DNA samples of all the terrorists. Pakistan had complained that one of the DNA samples was a duplicate. India acknowledged the clerical error and sent fresh samples. New govt ready with National Counter Terrorism Centre Indian Express, 21 May 2009 Days before he takes charge for his second term in office, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has had his staff prepare a roadmap to overhaul and modernise internal security mechanisms, the key element of which is the setting up of a National Counter Terrorism Centre (NCTC) like in most developed countries. Known in government circles as the 100-day internal security plan, the document, prepared by National Security Advisor M K Narayanan, aims to create a National Network Security Architecture to address a gamut of shortcomings that plague the internal security structure of the country 26/11: prosecution seeks to include Kashmir Hindu, 22 May 2009 Mumbai: The prosecution in the Mumbai terror attacks case moved an application in court on hursday asking for the inclusion of the objective of capturing Kashmir in the final charges.

According to Superintendent of Police V. C.

Narayan Rao for his "links with Christian militants" in southern Orissa district of Gajapati.bMr Rao was elected from the Parlakhemundi Assembly constituency in Maoist-affected Gajapati district in south Orissa. M2, a pro-hindu militant group, was formed following the reported rift in the Maoist group in the wake of the killing of senior Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) leader Swami Laxmananand Saraswati in Kandhamal district on August 23 last year. The CPI

Even now, six months after the arrest of Ernakulam-born Sarfaraz Nawaz and Muscat entrepreneur Ali Abdul Aziz al-hooti, investigators in India and Oman are struggling to understand the complex networks that emerged: networks that they are discovering bound together Indian Mujahideen attacks in southern India with the Lashkar s assault on Mumbai and a series of planned bombings in West Asia Lahore court bench poser to A-G: Why was India not bound to implement UN resolutions on Kashmir? Hindu, 31 May 2009 ISLAMABAD: If Pakistan was bound to implement the UN Security Council resolution on Jamat-ud-Dawa chief Hafiz Saeed, why was India not bound to implement UN resolutions on Kashmir, a full bench of the Lahore High Court wanted to know from Pakistan Attorney-General Latif Khosa on Saturday. The observation came during the hearing of a petition by Mr. Saeed and another JuD leader Colonel (retired) Nazir Ahmed against their house arrest since December Delhi stunned: UK & China stall move to blacklist Masood Azhar Indian Express, 31 May 2009 Barely seven months after the Mumbai attacks, Indian efforts in the United Nations to place sanctions on Jaish-e-Mohammad founder Maulana Masood Azhar have received a major setback. In a surprise move, the United Kingdom has joined hands with China to block the Indian request to proscribe both Azhar and Azam Cheema, the Lashkar-e-Toiba operative accused in the Mumbai train blasts, under the UN s Al Qaeda and Taliban Sanctions resolution (1267). India had wanted these two along with Abdul Rehman Makki, another LeT ideologue, to be included in the list just like the Jamaatud-Dawa and its head Hafiz Mohammed Saeed were added along with other LeT operatives after the Mumbai attacks. The banning under UN resolution 1267 means freezing of assets, travel ban and embargo on arms
