The ULFA, in its fortnightly newsletter, Freedom, greeted the PCG for starting the peace process with the Centre and raising the matter of sovereignty in the meeting. The outfit said, "So far, peace talks means announcement of ceasefire, setting up of ceasefire ground rules, rehabilitation militants, surrender of arms and formation of some council. While doing that, the main objective of sovereignty gets its place in the back burner." It further said that October 26 would remain a red-letter day in the history of North-east politics as it was on this day when it had raised the issue of sovereignty with the Centre through the PCG.

Security forces are reported to have killed a foreign Al Qaeda suspect and arrested another in Quetta, capital of Balochistan province, on November 1. "Security forces had an encounter when they raided a house [at Sirki Road] in Quetta on Tuesday. They captured a foreigner and killed another and they may be Al Qaeda operatives," Information Minister Sheikh Rashid told AFP. "They are Arabs but their nationality is not yet known," Rashid added. Security agencies are reportedly trying to establish if one of the men is a wanted Syrian national, Mustafa Setmariam Nasar alias Abu Musab Al Suri, who has a bounty of $5 million. Nasar is an Al Qaeda trainer at terrorist camps in Afghanistan and an expert in using poisons and chemicals. He is allegedly also linked to the Madrid and London bombings.

The US military said on November 1 that one of its Chinook helicopters delivering aid to earthquake victims was believed to have come under fire in Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK). "A United States Army CH-47 Chinook helicopter flying in the vicinity of Chakothi delivering relief aid to earthquake victims is believed to have been fired upon by a rocket-propelled grenade today around 1:45 pm", the US military said in a statement issued by the embassy in Islamabad. "The aircraft was not hit and returned safely with its crew without further incident to Chaklala Air Base around 2:30 pm," the statement added. However, Pakistan’s military regime spokesperson, Major General Shaukat Sultan, said that the chopper had not come under RPG fire but that the crew had heard a dynamite blast carried out to clear landslides triggered by the October 8 earthquake. "Our investigation revealed that it was blasting on the roadside by engineers, under way exactly at that time when the helicopters were flying over the area," Sultan claimed. The US Department of Defence currently has 24 military helicopters flying dozens of sorties daily to relief centres and villages in the quake-affected PoK and North West Frontier Province, according to The News.

According to Daily Times, intelligence agencies have warned the Government that banned Jihadi outfits are planning to make another assassination attempt on President Pervez Musharraf. According to intelligence reports submitted to the Interior Ministry, the Lashkar-e-Jhangvi (LeJ) and Jamiat-ul-Furqan (formerly Jaish-e-Mohammed) are trying to "cultivate" a relative of the president who is not on good terms with him or against his policies, sources told Daily Times. The report says if this scheme fails, the terrorist groups, which have so far been unable to penetrate the tight security around Gen Musharraf, could target close relatives or friends of the president. In light of these reports, the Interior Ministry has asked home secretaries of the four provinces and the Chief Commissioner of Islamabad to collect particulars of the close relatives and friends of the president and submit them to the ministry.

The United States has renewed its warning against possible "alliance" between Nepal’s major political parties and the Maoists. The US embassy in Kathmandu in a statement released on November 4 stated that, "The United States notes that the parties in the past have said that they would not enter into any formal relationship with the Maoists, unless and until the Maoists firmly renounce violence, put down their weapons, and commit to supporting the democratic process. Despite declaring a three-month ceasefire in September, the Maoists have done nothing to indicate that they are prepared to abandon violence in the long term, and abductions and extortion continue unabated." The statement further said, "We hope that the Maoists will enter into peace negotiations with the government in good faith, abandon their weapons, and come into the political mainstream. Until these steps are taken, the Maoists cannot be treated as a legitimate political party."

During his meeting with his Pakistani counterpart Shaukat Aziz on the sidelines of the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) Summit in Dhaka, on November 13, Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh said that there was no question of demilitarisation unless Pakistan stopped cross-border terrorism and attempts at infiltration. Prime Minister also said that in moving the peace process forward and correcting the "trust deficit" it was important that "we are not deflected by the incidents of terrorism and infiltration attempts that continue", reports the Hindu. Foreign Secretary, Shyam Saran, briefing newspersons after the meeting said, India could be ready to "take away" its forces not only on the Line of Control (LoC), but the entire border with Pakistan if cross-border terrorism and infiltration ended and the two countries reached that level of "trust."

On November 13, approximately thousand cadres of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) launched near simultaneous attacks on the jail, police lines and a paramilitary camp at Jehanabad in the State of Bihar, killing two persons and injuring five others, according to The Hindu. One Maoist was also killed in the incident. 341 of the jail's 600 odd prisoners, including Ajay Kanu, state secretary of the CPI-Maoist, and several other cadres of the outfit, were set free and approximately 12 activists of the Ranvir Sena, a private army of upper-caste landowners, have been abducted. Pamphlets left by the Maoists at the jail said 'Operation Jailbreak' was deliberately made to coincide with the ‘great November 13 Russian revolution’ and its aim was to "rescue our comrades and to award death penalty to select Ranvir Sena activists" lodged in the jail. The Maoists, who had reportedly taken control of all entry and exit points of the town exploded a series of bombs in front of the district Collectorate, residence of the district judge and the local S. S. College where a paramilitary camp has been set up.

On November 13, the Delhi Police (DP) announced the arrest of Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) terrorist who allegedly coordinated and financed the serial bomb blasts in Delhi on October 29. Tariq Ahmed Dar, who was working as a sales representative with the pharmaceutical firm Johnson and Johnson, had allegedly hatched the plot along with two LeT cadres, Abu Al Qama and Abu Huzefa, DP Commissioner K. K. Paul informed at a press conference in Delhi. Huzefa was a Pakistani and a LeT commander in Kashmir Valley. Just days before the blasts, Rupees 4.86 lakh had been deposited to Tariq’s bank account in Srinagar from a Middle-East country. The money was meant for financing the blasts in which RDX, though not in its pure form, was used, Paul said. Dar had been arrested by DP from Srinagar on November 10 and was brought to Delhi the next day where a local court remanded him to 14 days police custody, Paul informed. He also said that at least four persons were involved in the blasts, which killed at least 62 people and injured more than 200 others. While two of the conspirators and executers are from Jammu and Kashmir, the others were "foreign nationals," Paul said without identifying their nationality. The Commissioner said that though Dar himself was "probably" not in Delhi at the time of the blasts, he was the "financer, coordinator, spokesperson and front-man" of the LeT.

President Pervez Musharraf on November 13 expressed confidence that American hotels in Pakistan were safe from attacks such as last week’s bomb blasts in Jordan, and asserted that Pakistan has terrorists "on the run." Gen. Musharraf, in a US television interview, also said that he was sure extremists would never take over a "moderate" Pakistan. "One cannot guarantee 100 per cent the safety of US hotels in Pakistan. But I can be sure that in the last one year, almost one and a half years, there hasn’t been a terrorist attack in Pakistan because of the success of our anti-terrorist campaign," Musharraf told CNN. He also said "Radicals, the religious parties, have gone down in their support substantially. There is no doubt in my mind whatsoever that this country is a moderate country and moderate forces have reasserted themselves and religious forces have gone down."

The Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) has threatened to carry out more Jehanabad-type attacks to secure the release of its cadre from jails in different parts of the country. A two-page statement issued on November 14 in the name of Azad, spokesperson of the Central Committee (provisional) of the CPI-Maoist, said hundreds of "comrades" were languishing in the Bewoor, Gaya, Buxar, Bhagalpur, Muzaffarpur, Hazaribagh, Ranchi, Bethia and Bagha jails in the State of Bihar and Jharkhand. Besides, scores were in the jails of Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Orissa, Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh. The CPI-Maoist ‘pledged’ that its "heroic PLGA guerrillas" under the ‘Central Military Commission’ would secure their release. Hailing what it called the "historic politico-military campaign in Jehanabad," the statement narrated the Maoists' "siege" of the town on November 13. It claimed that during the two-and-a-half hour long "Operation Jailbreak", about 1,000 men conducted simultaneous raids on the jail and other places, including the district armoury, killed the "State-sponsored Ranvir Sena" leaders, captured several activists and seized hundreds of rifles and thousands of rounds of ammunition. These actions, it claimed, demonstrated the justness of the Maoist cause.

Two soldiers of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) and an equal number of civilians were killed while 17 persons, including a Japanese journalist, sustained injuries when terrorists carried out a Fidayeen (suicide squad) attack at the business hub of Lalchowk in the capital city of Srinagar on November 14. Both the terrorists involved in the grenade-and-firing attack were believed to have escaped from the incident site, which is a CRPF formation at the defunct Palladium Cinema. Police and CRPF personnel subsequently launched a joint operation to neutralise the terrorists and rescue civilians holed up at a number of hotels and restaurants. After six hours of the cordon-and-search operation, Inspector General of Police, Javed Makhdoomi, informed that Police managed to rescue as many as 70 civilians. According to him only four to six people were still holed up at Hotel New Peak View where one of the terrorists had been spotted after the shootout.

According to The Hindu, police foiled a bid by cadres of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) to blow up a Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited mobile tower at Dahewadi in the Gadchiroli district on November 15. Reportedly, Maoists had called for a bandh (general strike) on the same day to protest against the surrender policy of the State Government, which was announced on August 30, 2005. The Maoists, however, damaged some telephone equipments and machinery. The district police chief Shirish Jain said, "About 238 Naxal sympathisers and associates were rounded up from south Gadchiroli areas of Bhamragarh, Etapalli and Sironcha and rest of them from north in the district in a clear operation."

Pakistan continues to be a sanctuary and training ground for terrorists, a report on the status of recommendations made by the 9/11 Commission on terrorist attacks in the US has said, asking Washington to put pressure on Islamabad to counter terrorism. "Pakistan remains a sanctuary and training ground for terrorists," said a report by Vice-Chairman Lee Hamilton of the 9-11 Public Disclosure Project, which examined action taken by US administration on the recommendations of the Commission that probed the September 11, 2001, attacks. "(Pakistan President Pervez) Musharraf has made significant efforts to take on the threat from extremism... yet we are disappointed that he has not done more," said the former Congressman, pointing out that Gen. Musharraf has not lived up to his promises to regulate the Madrassas (seminaries) properly. "Taliban forces still pass freely across Pakistan-Afghanistan border and operate in Pakistani tribal areas. Terrorists from Pakistan carry out operations in Kashmir. Finally, the results of promised democratization efforts are yet to be seen," he said in the report released on November 14. The United States must pressure Pakistan to seal its borders, disrupt the insurgents' efforts, both in Pakistan and Kashmir, and shut down Taliban-linked religious schools and training camps, the report added

Singh told reporters at Charunda in the Baramulla district. He said terrorists would continue infiltration attempts, but "our effort is to scuttle their plans. There are some places along the Line of Control where infiltration is possible as militants can take advantage of the topography and difficult terrain." Infiltration had been controlled to a large extent and the "data available with us till this month shows that there is no need to worry," he added.

Leaders of the 53-nation Commonwealth on November 27 warned President Pervez Musharraf that retaining his role as leader of the Army "is incompatible with the basic principles of democracy". And they said that until he gives up his military role, Pakistan remained in danger of sliding into repression, despite its recent progress. In a statement at the end of a three-day summit in Valletta, capital of Malta, they welcomed Pakistan’s progress in restoring democracy since its reinstatement to the Commonwealth in 2004, and gave it two years to resolve the issue of Musharraf’s dual role. Commonwealth leaders "reiterated that until the two offices are separated, the process of democratisation in Pakistan will not be irreversible", the statement said. The statement "noted that the holding by the same person of the offices of head of state and chief of army staff (COAS) is incompatible with the basic principles of democracy."

On November 27, Maoist 'chairman' Pushpa Kamal Dahal alias Prachanda, in an interview to BBC Nepali Service said that his party is waiting for the King’s response to the 12-point understanding reached between the Maoists and the seven-party alliance, to take further move. "Let's see what response comes from them (palace and the king)," he said. Prachanda added that his party would accept the monarchy if the constituent assembly election, held in free and fair atmosphere, goes in favor of the King. When asked whether his party was ready to showing flexibility toward the monarch if the palace gives any positive signal for negotiating with Maoists and the parties, Prachanda said, "If any proposal comes with an objective to render a positive way out of the present problems through constituent assembly elections, we can think about it, but we have not seen such a possibility yet." With regard to laying down of arms, he said the issue would be settled after the constituent assembly elections results.

The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) on November 27 issued an ultimatum to the new Government to come up with a ‘reasonable' political settlement by December 31, 2005 or risk the outfit setting up a separate state. LTTE chief Velupillai Prabhakaran in his annual ‘Martyr's Day’ said their patience was wearing thin and he was making a final appeal for a political settlement that would answer their call for a separate state for the Tamils. "This is our urgent and final appeal… If the new government rejects our urgent appeal, we will, next year... establish self-government in our homeland," he said. In his speech from an undisclosed venue in Kilinochchi, Prabhakaran said: "Since President Rajapakse is considered to be a realist committed to pragmatic politics we wish to find out, first of all, how he is going to handle the peace process and whether he will offer justice to our people. Therefore we have decided to wait and observe, for sometime, his political manoeuvres and actions." He is also reported to have said that, "We were compelled to engage in the negotiating process by the intervention of the Indian regional superpower at a particular historical period and by the pressure of the international community at a later period."

Home Minister Shivraj Patil said on November 28 that though the number of infiltrators into the country has gone down, infiltration continues in a calibrated manner with terrorist organisations in Kashmir being "funded from the other side of the border". But there is a fall in terrorist violence in 2005, giving room for increased tourist flow, he informed the Parliament. Asserting that the overall level of violence in Jammu and Kashmir had been perceptibly lower in 2005, Patil said terrorist incidents were fewer by 22 per cent during the first ten months of the current year as compared to the corresponding period in 2004. "Till October 2005, 219 terrorists are estimated to have infiltrated, which is a decline of 55 per cent over 2004," he said in a statement placed on the table of both the Houses of the Parliament. As a result of reduction in terrorist violence, the number of tourists visiting the Kashmir Valley had increased to 533,211 in 2005 as against 303,109 in 2004. Referring to the sudden spurt in violence including blasts using car-bombs, suicide attacks and killing of a few political leaders in October and November, the Home Minister said the terrorists struck in October when the entire Government machinery was engaged in providing succor to the earthquake victims. The attacks during November 14-16 were to make their presence felt during the political transition in the State, he added.

Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapakse on November 28 invited the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) for peace talks and promised to maintain the country's cease-fire agreement. He said, "We can resume work immediately on reviewing the operation of the Ceasefire… I reaffirm my government’s commitment to continue the Ceasefire. I hope the LTTE will heed the call of the people in Sri Lanka and the international community by fully complying with the Ceasefire, especially those provisions relating to observance of human rights, such as refraining from the recruitment of child soldiers, political killings, abductions, and other illegal activities." The President also said, "My agenda is very clear; the process of achieving peace must be founded on trust and confidence. Most importantly, peace must be built on commitments that can be delivered in full. It is towards this end that I build consensus within the political landscape, so that the agreements that we reach at peace talks are fully deliverable." He welcomed Prabhakaran’s remarks on November 27 and said, "Recognizing my pragmatic approach and my invitation to talks as extending the hand of friendship, let me use this occasion to reiterate my invitation to Prabhakaran for talks."

Home Minister Shivraj Patil stated in Parliament that the Union Government was not able to bring down the level of Naxalite activities as successfully as it had tackled terrorism. "In States like Jammu and Kashmir and in the North-East, we have been largely successful in bringing down terrorism but not so much in dealing with Naxalites," Patil said. Asked whether Naxalites/extremists were regrouping or joining hands with those carrying out similar activities in other States and other countries, the Minister said there was a "grain of truth" in such reports. He added that the Centre was extending all help to the States and had given 26 battalions, approximately 26,000 men and police officials, to deal with the situation.
