Pakistan, and specifically its Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), has long been suspected and accused by India of aiding Islamist terrorists operating out of Pakistan, Afghanistan, India, and primarily Kashmir.
Now for the first time Pakistani President Zardari admits Pakistan's role in fostering terrorism against India for short-term tactical goals.
According to preliminary data from PVC's BAAD II dataset on terrorist organizations from 1998-2007, Pakistan's ISI has network connections with Islamist groups such as Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) and Harakat ul-Mujahidin (HuM) as well as other anti-Indian ethnonationalist groups operating in the "Seven Sisters" region of India such as the United Liberation Front of Assam (ULFA) and the National Socialist Council of Nagaland-IM (NSCN-IM).
