NEW DELHI: India has the largest number of indigenous terror organisations in the world, the Times of India has reported.

It said the Home Ministry has designated the CPI (Maoist) as the 34th terrorist organisation under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act. Of the 34 organisations, seven are transnational groups. National Liberation Council of Meghalaya, Kanglei Yaol Kanba Lup of Manipur and Akhil Bharat Nepali Ekta Samaj, which though virtually unheard of, are considered deadly enough by the government to be designated as terrorist organisations, the daily said.

Of the seven transnational terror groups, only two, Al Qaeda and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) are truly global names. The other five are Lashkar-e-Tayyaba (LT), Harkatul Mujahideen, Al Badr, Jamatul Mujahid and Hizbul Mujahideen (HM), the paper said. “I am not surprised that we have so many local terror groups,” the daily quoted Prakash Singh, former director general of Border Security Force as saying. “India is a large country with such great diversity and so many grievances. This complexity leads to a growth of radicals who thrive on extremist ideology and terror. Developed countries have not had to deal with problems like ours that breed extremism,” the daily quoted intelligence affairs expert B Raman as saying. app
