SRINAGAR, APR 29 (PTK): Indian Intelligence agencies have warned that Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) is in touch with militants linked to Jaish-e-Mohammad and Islamic State group to carry out fresh attacks in some parts of India.

In a report sent to the Home Ministry, the IB agencies mentioned that ISI organised a secret meeting between the militants of Jaish-e-Mohammad and Islamic State members in Afghanistan.

The report added that ISI has been planning Pulwama-like attacks in Kashmir and therefore, has been making all efforts to bring the both the groups ISIS and JeM, together.

A Home Ministry official said, “Jaish-e-Mohammad and Taliban militants have been fighting against NATO military forces in Afghanistan since a long time and we are keeping an eye on them.

However, efforts have been made to form ties between ISIS and Jaish-e Mohammad. It appears that Pakistan’s ISI is planning another conspiracy against India.” (PTK)
