IN a boost to India's case against Pakistan-backed terrorism, a UN Security Council report identified The Resistance Front(TRF), a Lashkar-e-Taiba proxy, as responsible for the April 22 Pahalgam attack that killed 26 civilians.

UNION Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday launched a scathing attack on the Congress for ceding Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), pandering to vote-bank politics and letting terrorism flourish, while wrapping up a debate on Operation Sindoor in the Rajya Sabha.

"Congress gave away the PoK to Pakistan, but the BJP-led government will get it back. The Congress has no right to question BJP on terror because terrorism flourished during the Congress regime due to its politics of appeasement," he charged.

Shah's assertion came a day after Defence Minister Rajnath Singh stated that one day the people of PoK would be happy to be part of India's governance system.
