India has indigenous Islamist terrorist threat: United States report

Washington: There is "a dangerous growth of indigenous Islamist terrorism in India despite New Delhi's reluctance to openly acknowledge it," a United States Congressional report said, adding leading such group is Indian Mujahideen.

"Despite New Delhi's reluctance to openly acknowledge the fact, India also has its own indigenous Islamist terrorism threat," report said. "The newly emergent 'Indian Mujahideen' (IM) group, widely believed to be an offshoot or pseudonym of Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI), has been found complicit in a number of recent bombings, even as government leaders continue to name Pakistan as an abettor of such episodes," Congressional Research Service (CRS) said.

The 94-page report was released by the CRS, independent and bipartisan wing of US Congress that prepares periodic reports on issues of interest to US law makers on September 1, a copy of which made public by Federation of American Scientists (FAS) Tuesday.

"Indian government formally outlawed the IM in 2010; months later, the group claimed responsibility for a December bombing in Varanasi that left a child dead and at least 20 people injured," CRS said. "In July 2011, three synchronized bomb blasts killed 17 people and injured some 130 more during Mumbai's evening rush hour," report said.
