Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi, inaugurating the conference, said that import of fundamentalist elements from across the international border had added a complex dimension to the 'delicate' problem of insurgency in the region. He further mentioned that the presence of long international border with Bangladesh, China, Myanmar, Bhutan, communication problem and hostile terrain in the region had made task of counter-insurgency very challenging in the region. "Counter-insurgency is a very difficult job as security forces are dealing with their own people, not the enemy. So there need to be judicious balance of restraint and belligerence to minimize aberration on part of the force personnel in respect of protecting human rights of the common people," said the Chief Minister.

Pakistani infiltration into Jammu and Kashmir has doubled this year, according to Chief Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad who has, consequently, ruled out reduction of troops, Press Trust of India reported. An estimated 500 Pakistani infiltrators have crossed into the State in the first 10 months of 2006, he said in New Delhi, recalling that in the corresponding period last year the figure was less than 200. Rejecting a Pakistani suggestion for reduction of troops in the State, the Chief Minister made it clear that innocent people could not be left at the mercy of terrorists. Azad, who has just completed one year in office, dismissed President Pervez Musharraf’s proposal for self-rule for both parts of the State, saying that the Pakistani ruler was himself not sure of what he was talking about. "I don’t think he (Musharraf) himself is very sure about it... We really have self-rule. We have our own Constitution, flag and elected representatives. What else is self rule."

According to IANS, the outlawed Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) is contemplating changing its name to evade attention it receives for its association with the terrorists. Quoting unidentified sources, the report said that SIMI may emerge under a new name such as Teharik-e-Millat or Awaz-e-Sura, with a view to expand its activities in Madhya Pradesh. Police officials say that Madhya Pradesh has witnessed a rise in SIMI activities despite a ban on the group in September 2001. Now its activities have spread to new districts like Burhanpur, Guna, Neemuch and Shajapur. According to police records, before the ban, SIMI activity was restricted to the districts of Indore, Ujjain, Khandwa and Bhopal, with its headquarters in Ujjain.

On November 7, two Unani (traditional oriental medicine) doctors were arrested in overnight raids at Malegaon and Govandi in the Nasik district in connection with the Malegaon bomb blasts, according to Times of India. Salman Farsi Aaimi and Farogh Iqbal Makhdomi were produced before special judge M. R. Bhatkar in the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) court. The Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) of Mumbai Police said that a search of Aaimi's clinic in Govandi had led to the seizure of "large quantities of seditious literature, notebooks containing cuttings of newspaper articles and code numbers". ATS sources have also conducted cotton swab tests in the clinic to ascertain if it had been used to store RDX. The forensic results are awaited. The ATS also claimed that the duo was part of a conspiracy hatched in February 2006 to "commit insurgency by spreading hatred among communities and thus disturbing the even tempo of life in the society". According to Indian Express, the ATS said that the duo provided shelter to their Indian and Pakistani accomplices and were conspirators in smuggling of RDX and other devices into Malegaon in May 2006 along with their Pakistani associates and some members of the Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI). The court sent both the arrested persons to police custody till November 21.

The Inspector General of Police (Intelligence), Khagen Sarma, is reported to have named China as one of the main sources of weapons for militant outfits operating in Assam, reports Telegraph. While addressing a seminar on terrorism held in Guwahati, he said militant groups were procuring weapons through a “strong network of arms smugglers” active in China. “The arms consignments are coming through a strong smuggling network, and there is no evidence of direct involvement of the Chinese Government in the illegal arms trade even though some sort of support from the Government to the activities cannot be ruled out,” disclosed Sarma. Further, the Inspector General of Police also accused the Myanmarese Government of having a “soft and cosmetic” approach towards outfits operating from its soil. He said the military regime had been seizing arms and ammunition from militants of the Northeast, only to sell the consignments to the same groups later. According to Sarma, violence caused by militancy had increased in Assam during the last ten months in 2006 after showing a decreasing trend since 2000. He added that the highest number of civilian casualties in recent times was in 2000, when 412 people were killed in terrorist attacks across Assam. At least 92 people have died in violence involving militants. While speaking about increasing incidents of bomb blasts in the State since 2002, he said, “There were 18 blasts that year. In 2005, there were 121 blasts and about 100 explosions until October this year.”

On November 10, the designated Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act (TADA) Court pronounced four associates of prime conspirator Tiger Memon guilty for their roles in supplying vehicles, concealing arms, attending meetings in Dubai and helping in landing operations leading to the Mumbai blasts of 1993. Special Judge P D Kode held Raju Jain, Ayub Ibrahim Patel, Farooq Motorwala and Mujib Parkar guilty for their part in aiding and abetting the terrorist act. Raju Jain, a close associate of Tiger Memon, had supplied one of his men and four jeeps during the landing operations at Shekadi on February 3 and 7. The vehicles were later used for transporting a consignment of arms, ammunition and explosives. Jain had also lent a scooter purchased in the name of his employee, which was used in the blast at Katha bazaar killing four persons and injuring 26 others. Ibrahim Patel, on the other hand, had acquired 20 hand grenades which were part of the arms consignment that were used for triggering the blasts. He later concealed the cache in his flat in Noor building at Oshiwara. Patel, however, was found not guilty for the charge of criminal conspiracy. Farooq Motorwala visited Dubai under a fictitious passport in the name of Kazi Salim Ilyas to attend meetings along with Taher Taklya and Latif Bhogwala. He also initiated co-accused Mohammed Jabir Khatlab into conspiracy who got himself recruited for training in Pakistan. Mujib Parkar had assisted Tiger Memon in smuggling operations at Shekadi by purchasing gunny bags under fictitious firms which was used for wrapping the consignment of arms, ammunitions and explosives.

Written in Tamil, the letter warned of possible attacks on other airports such as Coimbatore and Madurai (Tamil Nadu), besides Kochi, Kozhikode and Thiruvananthapuram airports in Kerala. The FBI has reportedly asked Indian authorities for a thorough profiling of passengers bound for the United States besides providing extra Apron security (when aircraft is on the tarmac) to the plane. The Civil Aviation Ministry held meetings with top officials of the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security, the Home Ministry and the Central Industrial Security Force and security has been stepped up in all airports across the country, especially in the southern states.

Assam Government is reported to be working on a “special” economic package for the twin hill districts of Karbi Anglong and North Cachar Hills to convince groups such as the United People’s Democratic Solidarity (UPDS) and Dima Halim Daogah (DHD) to give up their demand for statehood and involve themselves in planning and development of the backward districts, reports Telegraph. “We are planning the package in such a way that it could be close to the budgets of certain states whose territories are smaller than the two districts combined. If we draw up an annual budget that is more than that of these states or at least on a par, we see no reason for its rejection by the militant leadership. The package could be worth around Rs 500 crore,” said an unnamed official.

On November 16, the designated Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act (TADA) court pronounced two associates of absconding prime conspirator, Tiger Memon, guilty for their complicity in the 1993 blasts in Mumbai, reports The Hindu. Judge P. D. Kode held financier Mulchand Shah guilty of helping Memon to operate Hawala accounts in the name of 'Hathi', and thereby, facilitating the serial bombings. Memon's aide Imtiaz Ghawte was found guilty of parking a RDX-laden scooter at Dhanji street in south Mumbai that did not explode on the fateful day. Ghawte was found guilty under section 3(3) of TADA. He was also found guilty of participating in the conspiracy under section 120 B of IPC and section 3(3) of TADA for participating in the landing of arms at Shekhadi. However, he was absolved of charges of filling RDX in vehicles in garages of Memon at Al Husseni building on the eve of the blasts since the prosecution failed to prove his presence at the spot. Another accused, builder Murad Ibrahim Khan was acquitted due to lack of evidence. With these convictions, the total number of people found guilty has risen to 77 and 22 have been acquitted.

The ULFA reportedly sent many of its cadres to get trained in handling explosives at its transit camps in the forests of Arunachal Pradesh, the Garo Hills of Meghalaya and the border areas of Bhutan, reports Telegraph. Consequent to this, the report said that the ULFA could trigger at least 100 blasts in 2006. The explosions figure was 121 in 2005 and 103 in 2004, compared to only 37 in 2002 and 2003. Reports added that the ULFA has switched over from “difficult and risky” military combat to the more damaging but easy-to-execute Jihadi-type operations in urban areas. An unnamed police official said the outfit has been left with only about 800 “hardcore” cadres, making it more wary about exposing its core strike group to direct military confrontation. “Ulfa is definitely facing a manpower crisis, which is why it is avoiding military tactics like laying an ambush on security forces. Planting explosives and lobbing grenades in public places, preferably under cover of darkness, constitute the new modus operandi of Ulfa operations,” said the police official.

I resisted and our council agreed to refuse the assistance because we felt our movement would lose its Nepali-people-centric approach," Prachanda said, explaining his reasons for turning down such assistance.

The designated Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act (TADA) court on November 20 held the close associate of fugitive underworld don Dawood Ibrahim, Ejaz Pathan, and associate, Mohammed Dawood Khan, guilty of various offences in the 1993 serial bomb blasts in Mumbai. According to The Hindu, Judge P. D. Kode held Pathan guilty of attending a conspiracy meeting in Dubai, where plans were finalized out by prime conspirators Dawood Ibrahim, Tiger Memon, Mohammed Dossa, Mustaffa Dossa, Anees Ibrahim and Ayub Pathan to create terror in Mumbai by engineering a series of bomb blasts in the city. He was also found guilty of providing his men for landing operations of arms and ammunition at Shekhadi coast which were smuggled for the blasts. Pathan and his associate Mohammed Dawood were found guilty under Section 5 of TADA for possessing three AK-56 rifles and nine magazines which were part of the contraband. Pathan, who was extradited from Portugal four years ago, was also convicted under Section 6 of TADA (enhanced punishment for violating other acts) and Section 120 (b) (criminal conspiracy). But the court did not find Pathan guilty of sending his men to Pakistan via Dubai for arms training as the evidence provided by the Central Bureau of Investigation was not sufficient on this count.

On November 22, the designated Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act (TADA) court, pronouncing verdict in the 1993 Mumbai serial bomb blast cases, dismissed the plea of accused Moin Quershi claiming juvenile status and seeking direction to transfer the case to a Juvenile Court, reports Daily New & Analysis. Judge P. D. Kode, while dismissing his plea, held that the accused cannot take advantage of the amendment in Juvenile Justice Act as he was not under the age bracket at the time of arrest. The court observed that the accused cannot file application under section 7-A of the Juvenile Justice Act as the same is not applicable to him and he can be tried by this court under TADA. Qureshi, accused of throwing a hand-grenade at Mahim Causeway, is facing 11 charges under various sections of the TADA, Indian Penal Code, Arms Act and others. Police had earlier recovered 17 hand-grenades at his instance from a building in Mahim.

People’s Revolutionary Party of Kangleipak (PREPAK) militants shot dead their own cadre, identified as Laishram Herojit, at Sekmaijin in the Imphal West district on November 22, reports Sangai Express.

Union Home Minister Shivraj Patil said on November 22 that a "foreign country" and its spy agency were directing terrorist groups to the hinterland and making attempts to use local miscreants and organisations to perpetrate violent activities in the country, reports The Hindu. Inaugurating a three-day conference of State police chiefs in New Delhi, he said, "Apart from prominent individuals, organisations, institutions, vital installations, economic centres and important heritage monuments, our maritime interests are likely targets.” Patil further said that India's proposed civil nuclear deal with the US has made the country's atomic power plants highly vulnerable to terrorist threats, reports Indian Express. "In view of the recent Indo-US agreement on civil nuclear energy cooperation, our atomic power plants have become highly vulnerable”. He said that key installations in the oil and natural gas sector, defence, communications and IT are also equally vulnerable. "Some Lashkar-e-Toiba terrorist operatives are being trained specifically for sabotage of oil installations. There are plans to occupy some uninhabited islands and use them as bases for launching operations on the Indian coast,” Patil said. He added "They also plan to induct arms, ammunition through the sea routes. Simultaneously, we understand the ISI (Inter-Services Intelligence) has been collecting information on the location of various refineries on or near the Indian coastline.”

According to IANS, cadres of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist), on November 23, set ablaze eight vehicles, opened fire on the para-military India Reserve Battalion (IRB) camp and on the huts of workers engaged in a road-building project at Belapari in the West Midnapore district, across the border with Jharkhand. The target of the attack was the Prime Minister's Gram Sadak Yojana road project, which the Maoists believe will give security forces better access to insurgents’ hideouts, police sources said. A senior police official said, “The guerrillas use a forest corridor to travel to and from Jharkhand. If good roads are built, security forces can step up vigil.” The incident is the latest in a series of attacks in the region in the run-up to a state-wide shutdown called by the Maoists on December 14.

On November 23, an aide of prime conspirator Tiger Memon was among the two persons pronounced guilty by the Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act (TADA) court for their complicity in the 1993 Mumbai serial bomb blasts. Liaqat Ali Khan was found guilty under sections 3 (3) of TADA (P) Act for aiding and abetting terrorist acts by allowing Memon and Yeda Yaqub to store 80 cartons of RDX at his store-room in the Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation area and transporting them to other places. He was also held guilty under sections 5 and 6 of the Explosive Substance Act. However he was absolved of conspiracy charges. Noor Mohammad Khan, a builder, was found guilty of keeping in his store-room 58 bags of RDX smuggled by Memon and later disposing of the bags in a creek. He was also held guilty under section 5 of TADA (P) Act for possessing RDX and section 201 of IPC for concealing evidence. The court, however, acquitted him under section 6 of TADA and Explosive Substance Act and charges of conspiracy. With these two convictions, the number of those found guilty in the case has risen to 81.

The Director of Intelligence Bureau, E. S. L. Narasimhan, told a gathering of senior police officials in New Delhi on November 23 that for effectively combating terrorism, not only are new laws required, but police officials also ought to be shielded by a legal framework, according to Indian Express. “There is need for a more robust legal framework to deal with sudden terror attacks since police officials find themselves helpless in such situations. To counter terrorism, adequate legal protection to police officials is also needed,” he said. He also spoke about the harassment police personnel have to endure in courts for alleged human rights violations, Times of India reported. He expressed concern at the fact that officers responsible for neutralising Fidayeen (suicide squad) attacks are subjected to legal and extra-legal campaigns by activists. "We need to find answers to these issues as national counter-terrorism strategy suffers immensely when officers and men who put at stake everything in protecting society, find themselves helpless facing legal and extra-legal campaigns when the threats have receded," Narasimhan said.

On November 27, the designated Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act (TADA) court pronounced two senior Customs officers—R K Singh and M S Sayyed—guilty of complicity in terrorist activities leading to the 1993 Mumbai serial bomb blasts, reports Indian Express. Judge P. D. Kode said that both had received bribes and allowed the landing of arms, ammunition and explosives on the Shekhadi coast in Raigad. Singh, Assistant Collector of Customs (Alibaug division), had met absconding accused Mohammad Dossa and his associates at Persian Durbar in Panvel on January 6, 1993, with M. S. Sayyed, Superintendent of Customs (Alibaug division), and agreed to allow them to carry out smuggling activities in his jurisdiction for a bribe of over INR 7.8 lakh. Singh was convicted under Section 3(3) of TADA (aiding and abetting a terrorist act). The court permitted Singh to surrender to the police on December 5 as he pleaded that his father was suffering from cancer and is admitted in Tata Memorial hospital. Sayyed, who had similar charges against him, was convicted under the same sections as Singh. The court, however, absolved both of the charges of being part of the blasts conspiracy.

All eight persons arrested in this case are former SIMI [Students Islamic movement of India] members. The RDX was transported from Mumbai to Malegaon in the third week of July (after the 7/11 train bombings), and the bombs were made there", Pasricha said. He added that while eight SIMI activists have been arrested in connection with the blasts, an equal number are still at large. Both the Pakistani nationals are also to be arrested. Pasricha further said that while one of those arrested, Zahid Ali, planted the bomb at Mushawerat Chowk, Huda and his accomplice Raees Rajjab Ali planted bombs in the cemetery.

The Assam Police on November 30 claimed that an arrested cadre of the National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB) was part of the militant squad that triggered the November 20 explosion in a train at Belakoba in the Jalpaiguri district of West Bengal. 10 persons were killed and at least 50 injured in a bomb blast inside a compartment of the Haldibari-Siliguri Passenger train at Belacoba station. Police sources said that Addison Sangma, who was arrested from Chotopankhadol village in the Dhubri district on November 27, not only supplied RDX to the Kamtapur Liberation Organisation (KLO) but also prepared the “blueprint” for the train attack. Superintendent of Police in Dhubri, Parthasarothi Mahanta, told The Telegraph, “Addison was the main provider (of RDX) to the KLO for the explosion. He provided shelter to the KLO militants who triggered the blast.” During his interrogation by a team of police from West Bengal, Assam and the Railways, Addison said he harboured four KLO cadres in his house, helped them draw up the plan for the terrorist attack and arranged for arms, ammunition and explosives. The report, quoting an unidentified source, further said that KLO militants had planned to “trigger more blasts in Cooch Behar but shelved the operation when they learnt that Sangma did not have the required stock of RDX with him at the time.” The NDFB is currently observing a cease-fire agreement with the Government.

Union Home Minister Shivraj Patil, replying to a short duration discussion on the "Internal Security Scenario" told the Rajya Sabha (Upper House of the Indian parliament) on November 30 that the Government has put in place a multi-pronged policy to deal with terrorism and maintain internal security. According to The Hindu, Patil said that one of the key components of the policy was to enhance the strength of the paramilitary forces. Many battalions of the forces were being raised and the Government had asked the States to increase the strength of their police forces and also train the personnel. "The Government is supporting it by giving huge amounts of money," he said. He informed that the intelligence agencies at the national level and the special branches of police at the State level were also being strengthened. The Minister, however, did not give any categorical reply to a demand raised during the discussion by Communist Party of India (Marxist) member Brinda Karat if the Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act (AFSPA) would be repealed in Manipur. He said, "Since other ministries like defence and law are also involved, I am not in a position to say anything more than this."
