ACCORDING to the Indian media, a former officer of the Indian home ministry has alleged that the Indian government had orchestrated the

high-profile terrorist attacks which New Delhi has blamed on Pakistan-based militant groups.

So, what we have suspected for a long time has turned out to be true.

The 2001 attack on India’s parliament and the 2008 Mumbai attack were both arranged by the Indian government. The question arises: why is our foreign office silent on this issue?
