India today hailed the United States’ decision to designate The Resistance Front (TRF) as a Foreign Terrorist Organisation and Specially Designated Global Terrorist. The TRF, a proxy of the Pakistan-based terrorist organisation Lashkar-e-Tayyiba, has been involved in numerous terror-related activities, including the heinous attack on civilians in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir. External Affairs Minister Dr. S Jaishankar appreciated the US State Department and Secretary Marco Rubio for the decision. He added that this affirms the India-US counter-terrorism cooperation.
India has consistently emphasised the need for global cooperation in the fight against terrorism and the dismantling of terror infrastructure. The designation of TRF is a timely and important step reflecting the deep cooperation between India and the United States on counter-terrorism. India remains committed to a policy of zero tolerance towards terrorism. It will continue to work closely with its international partners to ensure that terrorist organisations and their proxies are held accountable.
