India asks Pakistan to destroy 42 operational terror camps

India has again asked Pakistan to destroy the 42 terror camps operational on their soil. Defence Minister A K Antony told this to reporters on the sidelines of the Coast Guard Commanders' Conference in New Delhi on Tuesday when asked about India's concerns over the existing terror camps in Pakistan.

In the recent past, reports have suggested that a large number of terrorists are waiting on the other side of the Line of Control (LoC) to infiltrate into Jammu and Kashmir.

To a query on the impact of the pullout by the US forces from Afghanistan in the next couple of years, he said, a resurgent Taliban can be a security concern for India after western forces leave the war-torn country.

American troops are scheduled to leave Afghanistan by 2014 and are engaged in the process of building capabilities of the Afghan National Army to enable it to handle security on its own.
