According to official sources, a suspected Maoist insurgent of Nepal was arrested form the cantonment area in Bagdogra, near Siliguri, on September 4. A sophisticated Chinese-made 7.65-mm pistol, 19 rounds of ammunition and two hand-grenades were also recovered from his possession. Official sources said the insurgent, a suspected member of the underground Communist Party of Nepal (Maoists), which has close links with the Gorkhaland Liberation Organisation (GLO), had probably come to sell weapons in India. Media reports quoting intelligence sources said the arrest indicated the prevalence of gun running in the region, which has of late become rampant with the Inter Services Intelligence (ISI), Pakistan’s external intelligence agency, funding terrorist outfits like the Kamtapur Liberation Organisation (KLO) and the United Liberation Front of Asom (UlFA).

The deceased Sena leader carried a prize of Rs one lakh on hi head and was wanted in several criminal offences including for abduction, murder and massacres. However, the kin of the slain outlaw alleged that the encounter was fake and police killed him in cold blood. The Jehanabad Member of Parliament and the local Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) also described the encounter as ‘fake’ and demanded a high-level judicial inquiry. As the news of the encounter spread, activists of the Ranvir Sena unleashed arson and violence in Jehanabad and Gaya districts. They damaged the south cabin of Bela railway station, burnt a vehicle and uprooted rail tracks near the station to protest the police action. Police patrolling has been intensified in Jehanabad and the adjoining Gaya districts following the incidents.

These persons are presently being tried for their alleged role in the serial blasts. Some of them are currently out on bail.

He also said the party had received overwhelming public support for its decision and was considering nominating five more candidates detained under the Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act (TADA).

Advani was addressing the annual conference of State police chiefs, in New Delhi, on September 5, 2001.

The Minister contended that there were safeguards for the security personnel during an open war, but in an abnormal situation of a proxy war, there were no legal provisions to protect police personnel who had done something in a bona fide manner to provide security to the common people.

Muttahida Jehad Council (MJC) Chairman Syed Salahuddin said, in an interview to Dawn, a Pakistani daily, that Pakistan should evolve a consensus with the terrorist outfits on the issue of removing banners and donation boxes.

His remarks came in the wake of reports in a section of the Pakistan press that the MJC at a meeting chaired by him had agreed to remove banners and donation boxes from public places in Pakistan. According to Salahuddin, who is also the ‘supreme commander’ of the Hizb-ul-Mujahidden (HM), "I never chaired any such meeting where the said decision was taken."

A news report on September 9 has indicated that intelligence reports submitted to the Prime Minister has said that the drive to impose ‘burqas’ (veils) on Muslim women in J&K was part of a strategy to enable terrorist attacks using this dress. As reported earlier, a new outfit, the Lashkar-e-Jabbar has announced that it would use violence to implement its directive that all Muslim women adopt an ‘Islamic dress codes’. The intelligence reports have reportedly observed that when implemented, it will be easier for the terrorists to launch attacks wearing the ‘burqas’. The intelligence reports have reportedly added that Lashkar-e-Jabbar was also receiving overt and covert support from the Pakistan-based Haqqania Madrassa, which in turn was funded by wealthy Pakistanis and other Muslims living in West Asian countries. The Haqqania Madrassa is also reported to have secured support from the Saudi terrorist, Osama bin Laden, currently based in Afghanistan. Laden is also suspected to be aiding the Lashkar-e-Jabbar.

A news report on September 9 quoting Inspector General (IG), Border Security Force (BSF) Baramulla Frontiers, Naresh Mehra, has indicated that the suicide squads, fidayeen, of various terrorist outfits operating in the State comprise terrorists highly addicted to drugs. The officer added that drugs have been found in the possession of most fidayeen who were either arrested or killed. These fidayeen largely hail from Afghanistan, Pakistan’s North West Frontier Province (NWFP) and Sudan. The IG also told a group of visiting journalists that with relentless counter-insurgency operations by the security forces (SFs), the present scenario indicates that terrorists are unable to secure local support and are also finding it difficult to establish their hideouts in towns and villages and are hence operating from the higher ridges which too are guarded by troops thus foiling their attempts to reassemble and dump their stock of arms, ammunition, explosive and logistics. The officer said that available reports indicate that a large number of foreign mercenaries comprising Pakistanis, Afghanis and Sudanese after undergoing various terms of imprisonment in Pakistani jails have been motivated and recruited by the country’s, Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) for launching them into Kashmir valley along with arms, ammunition as also fake currency. They have been tasked to undertake well-planned operations including fidayeen attacks on security forces camps, police stations, political leaders, bureaucrats, sources/ informers and surrendered terrorists.

The officer also revealed that a new strategy of the active terrorists outfits in the area is to motivate surrendered terrorists and push them back into militancy. In this context, he indicated that the monetary factor is being adopted to lure the surrendered militants. The officer also added that some surrendered terrorists were killed for not obliging the terrorist outfits. Naresh Mehra also observed that a well-organised motivation drive has been launched by the Jamaat-e-Islami (JeI), an Islamic socio-religious organisation to lure the unemployed youth for joining various militant outfits. Providing further details to a shift in the terror tactics, he indicated that terrorists have now commenced operating in larger groups of eight to 10 members to attack isolated SF posts in order to inflict maximum casualties. This was unlike the previous years when they used to operate in smaller groups of two or three members. Terrorist outfits are also reported to have adopted hit and run tactics in certain crowded areas and markets to seek cover and maintain anonymity to avoid direct conflict with SFs. They have also reported to begun planting Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) in abandoned houses, under vehicles, trees, road side slopes, culverts in tandem with second IED with dual initiation mode to cause maximum casualties. Plans to kill political leaders and to destablise the political system and normalcy in the State has reportedly become a top priority in the shifting terror tactics o the outfits..

Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) chief Hafiz Mohammad Saeed, in a telephonic interview to a news agency, on September 12, denied the role of the outfit in the terrorist attacks in the United States and said his group’s main focus remained on activities in the Indian State of Jammu and Kashmir. He said, "The issue of Kashmir and America are two different matters and one should not be associated with the other." Describing as ‘wrong and baseless’ an earlier claim in the name of the LeT for the attacks in the US, he said, "These are aimed to defame [the] Lashkar, which was involved in the Jihad (holy war) in Jammu and Kashmir." On the September 11-attacks in the US, he said, "America has harassed and harmed a lot of people. It has conflicts with nations like Iraq. So the matter should be investigated thoroughly, instead of indulging in baseless allegations."

Addressing the nation in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001-terrorist attacks in the United States, Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee, on September 14, called for concerted action by the international community against the international network of terrorism. He said terrorism should be struck at its roots and governments who nurture and support terrorism should be held wholly accountable. He reminded that India had been alerting the international community for the past two decades that terrorism, which India faced, could take place elsewhere. In an oblique reference to Pakistan, the Prime Minister said India faced a proxy war from a government in its neighbourhood, which regarded terrorism as an instrument of state policy. He said, "As this region has become the hub of terrorism, much of the response to the destruction that the terrorists committed on September 11 could take place in our vicinity.'' He also emphasised the need for a proper legal framework to deal with the menace. Pointing to the inordinately lengthy legal processes, he said only the first phase of the trial in the 1993-Mumbai serial blasts case was now over. This, he said, was an 'open invitation' to terrorists to act with impunity.

In his keynote address at the two-day State Police Conference, he opined that political expediency and hypocrisy by the world leadership was sustaining terrorism in the contemporary world. He also added, it was "high time for the greatest victims of the international terrorism — India and America— to firmly and decisively strike on the terrorist training camps in Afghanistan and Pakistan, so that they would learn how to behave with the peace-loving neighbours."

News reports from Barama, Nalbari, indicated that leaders of All Assam Students Union (AASU) and the All Bodo Students Union (ABSU) resolved to launch a joint effort to find a permanent solution to the Bodo problem. At a joint meeting, the leaders of the two student bodies also welcomed the on-going peace talks between the Union government and the Bodo Liberation Tigers (BLT). In a resolution adopted at the joint ABSU-AASU sitting, the first one after the 1998 meeting held at Kokrajhar, declared that the solution to the Bodo problem should be "acceptable to all sections of indigenous people in the State." The resolution further stated that the Government of India, if required, should not hesitate to male special constitutional provisions in order to find a lasting and widely accepted solution to the Bodo problem. AASU adviser Samujjal Bhattacharya observed that both the AASU and the ABSU were keen on preserving the constitutional rights of all the communities, including those of the Bodos and the non-Bodos living in Bodo-dominated areas of Assam, irrespective of the type of solution to the Bodo problem. ABSU President Rabiram Narzary said, "the struggling Bodo groups have been able to evolve consensus among non-Bodo communities regarding solution to the Bodo political problem."

External Affairs Minister Jaswant Singh, speaking at a press conference in New Delhi on September 20, said that Pakistan was still promoting cross-border terrorism and terrorist outfits continue to flourish there despite the country’s proclaimed support to the fight against global terrorism. Commenting on possible US military strikes against the Taliban regime, he said indicated that a global effort against terrorism cannot be unidimensional and military action was only one of a the options and not the final determinant in the fight against terrorism. He also said that in order to eliminate terrorism, the international community has to fight it on several fronts, which would require ‘a lot of stamina’, and military action was only for a select purpose. The Minister said that intelligence inputs have indicated that the Taliban high command has recalled its terrorists from Jammu and Kashmir in order to fight in Afghanistan in case of a US military strike. According to him, "Mohammad Omar has issued an appeal that all terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir should quickly move towards Afghanistan and come to Afghanistan to stand up against what is apprehended".

Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee, in an interview to a national daily, said that it was for the United States to decide whether terrorism is a global phenomenon or whether it was restricted to just one individual. He said Afghanistan is a symptom and the United States would have to look beyond it, at the training camps, at the arms and money flowing into the hands of terrorists if it wants to get rid of terrorism ‘root and branch’. Commenting on military cooperation with the United States, he said it was not something new for India and the first Premier Jawaharlal Nehru had sought and obtained it in the wake of the Sino-Indian border war in the early 'sixties. On the Pakistani President’s tirade against India in his televised address to the nation on September 19, the Prime Minister said these allegations were along expected lines. He said that for General Musharraf, the main issue is about India-Pakistan relations and not about terrorism. The Premier added that Musharraf's remarks constituted a "serious set back to the India- Pakistan dialogue process". He also ruled out any visit by him or by the External Affairs Minister Jaswant Singh to Pakistan in the foreseeable future.

Media reports quoting official sources said on September 22 that the Ministry of Home Affairs had intercepted Pakistan’s message to Afghan terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir (J&K), who are reportedly planning to move to Afghanistan, to stay on. A government official was quoted as saying that Afghan terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir were planning to return to Afghanistan, a trend that has been worrying Pakistan. The official reportedly said that Pakistan’s initial reluctance to join the US-led proposed attack against the Taliban regime in Afghanistan stemmed from its apprehension that it would alienate the Afghan terrorists operating in J&K. The Taliban chief Mullah Mohamamd Omar had reportedly directed all Afghan terrorists in J&K to move to Afghanistan to fight against the US forces.

A news report on September 23 said British security services have launched an operation to locate Ahmed Omar Sheikh, a British national who was part of the Harkat-ul-Ansar (HuA). Ahmed Omar Sheikh was part of a group operating under the name of Al-Faran and had abducted four foreigners in New Delhi, in November 1994. He was arrested after police located his hideout. Later, in December 1999, he was released in Kandahar, Afghanistan as part of the terrorist-hostage swap that followed the hijacking of Indian Airlines Flight IC-814. British security agencies suspect that Sheikh has links with Osama bin Laden, the prime suspect in the September 11, 200- terrorist attacks on US targets. One of the hijackers of the IC-814 flight is also suspected to have participated in the September 11-attacks.

A two-judge bench of the Kolkata High Court, on September 24, directed Purulia arms drop convict and British national Peter Bleach to file an affidavit by October 5, 2001 to state that his detention in jail was a act of ‘ blatant racial discrimination.’ Bleach is serving life term in a Kolkata jail. He submitted to the court that while the five Russian pilots, released in July 2000, and he were convicted and then sentenced to life on identical charges, ''The Russians are now free men and I am in jail because I am a British national. It is racial discrimination''. The court observed that it was still in the dark whether the five Russian pilots were released after being granted mercy or pardon or remittance. The court observed that the matter would become clear after the Union Law Ministry files its affidavit by October 5. Bleach and five other pilots were arrested after a plane dropped a huge cache of arms in Purulia district, West Bengal, on December 17, 1995. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) investigated into the case and filed charge sheets against Bleach and five Russians. The Russians were, however, released from jail on July 22, 2000 through a Presidential Order.

Media reports quoting official sources said Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee, in a telephonic conversation with British Prime Minister Tony Blair, on September 24, said it was time for the international community to address the post-Taliban structure in Afghanistan. He added that the aim of the US-led campaign should be to establish a representative government in Afghanistan and the international community should pay attention to the ‘humanitarian and reconstruction’ needs of Afghanistan’ after the impending conflict was over. The assertion of the Indian Prime Minister indicates India’s hope that US war-plans will eventually lead to the ouster of the Taliban regime. According to official sources, Blair phoned Vajpayee to welcome India’s response to support to the US’ war plans against Afghanistan. The British Prime Minister reportedly told his Indian counterpart that Britain stood for an effective international strategy to confront terrorism and fully supported India’s initiative for a UN Convention on the suppression of terrorism. He added that the European Union (EU) had endorsed India’s draft Convention and once this came into force, Britain would be keen to discuss with India, how it could effectively be enforced.

News reports on September 27 said security has been intensified at offshore and onshore oil production and exploration installations following the terrorist attacks in the U.S. The Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) has been in touch with the agencies concerned and measures have been taken to enhance protection for the installations that are of crucial need for the country. Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) Chairman Subir Rahasaid said there was already in place adequate security at the oil installations. But, after the terrorist attacks in the US, and possible threat perceptions, security cover has been heightened. The Chairman added that the defence forces were involved in ensuring security for oil installations. Without elaborating on the exact nature of support being provided by the defence services, he said, "We have had a very comprehensive coordination with the defence services''.

Pandey said SIMI has links with the Muslim Students' Union, a pro-Hamas Palestine students’ outfit. Besides, SIMI cadres recently distributed pro-Taliban leaflets and pamphlets in Delhi and other cities.

The ‘Supreme commander’ of Al-Badr Mujahideen, Bakht Zameen Khan said in Mansehra on September 28 that the ongoing conflict between US and the Taliban over Osama bin Laden has affected terrorist activity in Jammu and Kashmir. He claimed that India was spreading ‘propaganda’ against the terrorist outfits in order to get them declared as terrorist outfits by the US administration. Consequently, he also claimed that the US has not declared one outfit as terrorist but has also had its assets and bank accounts frozen in Pakistan. He said that if Pakistan was supporting such moves to declare Jehadis as terrorists "then it will be an open war against us and we will never tolerate such tactics." Khan warned that if the US attacked Afghanistan, "we would be left with no other option but to take part in the holy war against the US."

The Union Home Ministry has asked the State government in Jammu and Kashmir to ban three terrorist organisations, the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT), Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) and the Hizb-ul- Mujahideen (HM). Addressing a press conference in New Delhi, Union Home Secretary Kamal Pandey said, on September 28, the Union government was not imposing a ban on the three outfits for two reasons. First, the militant groups had declared an ``open war'' against India and the security forces were tackling them, and secondly, they were operating in Jammu and Kashmir. Explaining the stand of asking the US to ban these outfits, Pandey said, "A ban by America will choke supply of outside funds.''

Three Pakistan-based terrorist outfits in separate statements on September 28 denied Indian reports that they had linkages with the Taliban regime in Afghanistan. They also refuted reports that terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) had been recalled by the Taliban militia to reinforce the latter's ranks preparing for an impending US attack on Afghanistan. According to Salim Hashmi, a spokesperson of the Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) "The reports are part of Indian propaganda aimed at misleading the world community regarding our indigenous struggle for freedom." Hashmi while speaking to Dawn, a Pakistani daily also rejected reports that the Afghans were passing on their weaponry to HM cadres. Hashmi also rejected reports that the Hizb had any links with the proscribed Students Islamic Movement of India. According to him, "The Hizbul Mujahideen strongly negates reports that it has or ever had any connection with the Student Islamic Movement of India (Simi). Such allegations, we believe, are made under a conspiracy to use them as a pretext to kill innocent Indian Muslims."

Reacting sharply to the proscription of the Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI), senior All Party Hurriyat Conference (APHC) leader and Jamaat-e-Islami (JeI) ideologue Syed Ali Shah Geelani said, in Srinagar, on September 29, that the ban amounted to ‘execrating’ Islam. While terming the ban as "communal, criminal and even against the Constitution of India" he added that "communal" parties like the Bajrang Dal and the Rashtriya Swayam Sewak Sangh (RSS) should also have been banned as they were operating "freely and fearlessly on communal agenda". According to him, "There should be no ambiguity that banning SIMI is directly smudging Islam. Islam is not a physical entity. It is a way of life being represented by mosques, socio-religious organisations and Islamic schools. If these are attacked, Islam is directly attacked." Disclosing that he has a close association with SIMI, Geelani said he had attended several congregations of the organisation in the recent past.

The NYF, on the other hand, supports the extension. The Union government initially extended the cease-fire to all Naga inhabited areas in the Northeast, but subsequently withdrew it following widespread protests.
