Bangalore: The Lashkar-e-Tayiba, one of the most active militant terrorist organizations is planning to spread its terror once again, this time with a group of women extremists. An army official was quoted saying "We have confirmed reports that LeT is imparting training to 21 selected female terrorists at its training facilities in Muzaffarabad in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) for carrying out terrorist activities in India."

Reports reveal that the 21 girls are being trained by LeT under the name Dukhtaran-e-Toiba. This is also because the earlier formation of women Dukhtran-e-Millat had not been successful in mobilizing local women against the Indian state. DeT is planned to be made active in the Kashmir Valley. The DeT project is said to be conceptualized by Mumbai terror attack mastermind Abdul Rehman Lakhvi. The women terrorists are to be infiltrated into India through routes in Uri sector or through the aerial route from Nepal.

As reported by The Hindu, there are other training camps that are located at Turbeladem in PoK which have over 400 terrorists in various groups who are being trained and that the facility is being commanded by a senior officer of Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI). The ISI has asked the LeT and other terror groups to carry out attacks against the Indian troops deployed on the LoC.  The sources also said that LeT may resort to sniper fire or stand-off firing on Indian troops in the sectors opposite to Chhamb and Sunderbani soon.
