Pakistan claims terror network ‘dismantled', denies LeT link to Pahalgam attack

Indian Express19-07-2025
Pakistan on Friday claimed that it 'dismantled' the terrorist network and any effort to link the Pahalgam terror attack with the defunct Lashkar-e-Tayyaba (LeT) was against the reality.
The Foreign Office made the remarks in a statement, a day after the US designated The Resistance Front (TRF), a proxy of the Pakistan-based terror outfit LeT, as a 'foreign terrorist organisation' and a Specially Designated Global Terrorist for its involvement in the Pahalgam attack.
'Pakistan has effectively and comprehensively dismantled concerned outfits, arrested and prosecuted the leadership, and deradicalised its cadres,' the statement said.
Stating that the investigation into the Pahalgam attack is 'still inconclusive,' it said, 'any linkage with LeT, a defunct organisation banned in Pakistan, belies ground realities'.
The statement said Pakistan condemns terrorism in all forms and manifestations, has zero tolerance against terrorism, and it is the cornerstone of its policy to cooperate internationally against terrorism.
The TRF claimed responsibility for the Pahalgam attack, but later backtracked as tensions soared between India and Pakistan.

Adani Group lines up $10-bn investment in Vietnam

New Delhi: Ahmedabad-based Adani Group has pledged to invest up to $10 billion in Vietnam, marking one of its largest overseas commitments as it eyes strategic expansion across Southeast Asia. Adani Group Chairman Gautam Adani conveyed the group's plans during a meeting with Vietnamese Communist Party General Secretary To Lam in Hanoi on Wednesday, outlining investment opportunities in infrastructure, energy, seaports, airports, logistics, and digital technology. While the group plans to invest a massive $100 billion in India over the next five years, internationally, it has already acquired Haifa Port in Israel in 2023 for $1.15 billion. It has also made significant investments in Australia, including a coal mine and a port project. The group is making its presence felt in Vietnam through a proposed port project in Da Nang. This latest pledge signals Adani's deeper push into the fast-growing Vietnamese economy and aligns with the country's priorities in renewable energy and digital transformation. The Vietnamese leadership welcomed the proposal and encouraged swift coordination between Adani and local authorities to fast-track project execution.
