"International And Transnational Terrorism"

There have been random acts of terrorism over recent years in various regions of India. The Jammu and Kashmir region in particular has been the scene of considerable violence, parts of which can be characterized as being a semi-permissive security environment. Attacks throughout India often occur in public places without regard to collateral causalities and damage. International terrorist groups have claimed responsibiiity for large wide-scale attacks in India, such as the New Delhi Market blasts in October 2005 and the Mumbai train bombings in July 2006.
