Defence Minister AK Antony yesterday reiterated his opinion on the Indo-Pakistan relations saying “all terrorist camps in Pakistan were intact with many operating in the vicinity of army bases. There are various terrorists groups operating from Pakistan, but despite India’s repeated requests all terrorist camps are intact. Antony said unless Pakistan makes serious and convincing efforts, it won’t help in improving relations with Pakistan. “We are not lowering our guard. If something happens we will act accordingly,” he said in response to a question about what would India’s reaction be in case of another terrorist attack. Just last week the Home Minister had said “ we will retaliate in case of another attack”.
Asked about reports of the Lashkar-e-Taiba targeting the National Defence College (NDC) an elite boarding school in India, Antony said: “We know very well that there are forces who now and then are creating problems in India. We are making all out precautions across the country.”
On Tibetan spiritual leader Dalai Lama, Antony repeated the stance of the Prime Minister saying, he (Dalai Lama) was an honoured guest of India but he would not be allowed to indulge in political activities here.
