New Delhi: India on Saturday summoned the Charge d’Affaires of the Pakistan High Commission and lodged a strong protest with him over attempts by Pakistan-based terror group Jaish-e-Mohammed to carry out attacks in Jammu and Kashmir ahead of local elections there.

Referring to the Nagrota incident, the ministry said the huge cache of arms, ammunition and explosive material indicate detailed planning for a “major attack to destabilise the peace and security” in the UT of J&K, in particular, to derail the ongoing democratic exercise of conduct of local district development council polls.

“Pakistan Cd’A was summoned by the Ministry of External Affairs, and a strong protest was lodged at the attempted attack, which was only prevented from happening by the alertness of the Indian security forces,” the MEA said.

In a statement, it said India is “firmly and resolutely” committed to take all necessary measures to safeguard its national security in the fight against terrorism.

“It was demanded that Pakistan desists from its policy of supporting terrorists and terror groups operating from its territory and dismantle the terror infrastructure operated by terrorist outfits to launch attacks in other countries,” it said.

Four suspected JeM terrorists, who were hiding in a truck, were killed by security forces in Nagrota on Thursday morning.

“A major terror attack was foiled by Indian security forces in Nagrota, Jammu and Kashmir on November 19. Initial reports indicate the attackers to be members of Pakistan based JeM, a terrorist organization proscribed by the United Nations and several countries,” the MEA said.

It said serious concerns were also conveyed at continued terror attacks by JeM against India, adding the terror outfit has been part of several attacks in India in the past including the Pulwama attack in February 2019.

The MEA said India reiterated its long standing demand that Pakistan fulfill its international obligations and bilateral commitments to not allow any territory under its control to be used for terrorism against India in any manner.

  1. SAMPLE THE SURGICAL STRIKE IN NAGROTA A FEW DAYS AGO

    It is a Bogus hit planned by an Indian Clown !

    See the video and see the sparks coming out ! Just like a Diwali Cracker !

    Is this the trail of RDX ?

    How did the Indian Bania Army hit the truck ? By a Missile ? Y is the truck intact ? It should have been blown to bits !

    Or was it a grenade lobbed or a IED ? IED would have also blown the truck to bits !

    Y is there no sound in the video ? Was it 1 or more explosions ?

    Y are there no burn marks on the recovered RDX and grenades ?

    The Klashnikovs are mangled ! An explosion which can mangle a Klash would also shred the bodies of the
    mujahideen ! But they were not !

    The physical disturbance and explosion would have at least set off a grenade carried in the truck – which
    would have then set off a chain reaction – but it DID NOT !

    Best of all – even with an Indian Army missile hit – the RDX in the truck did not explode ! And if RDX explodes all the vehicles nearby would be blown to bits – but there was not a scratch on them ! PRECISION MUNITION – is it ?

    My My !

    How did that happen ? SMART WEAPONS !

    It is all a Bogus Lie ! dindooohindoo
