Terrorists Threats on Military Establishments 

Government has drawn its attention towards the terrorist strike on the Air Force Base situated at Pathankot on 02 January 2016. There are no operational issues which indicate lack of coordination among security agencies. A joint operation by the Army, Air Force and National Security Guard (NSG) was conducted to neutralize the said terrorist attack.

No such inputs have come to the notice of the Government. In order to counter terror activities, there exists close and effective coordination between intelligence and security agencies at the Centre and the State Government level.

The Government has constituted a Committee under the chairmanship of a former Vice Chief of Army Staff to inter-alia suggest measures to strengthen security of various military establishments across the country.

This information was given by Defence Minister Shri Manohar Parrikar in a written reply to ShriMotilal Vora in Rajya Sabha today.
