AfPak epicentre of terror: Union home minister P Chidambaram

NEW DELHI: Union home minister P Chidambaram said on Thursday that India has neutralised 51 terror modules since the Mumbai terror attacks of 2008.

Chidambaram said Pakistan and Afghanistan are epicentres of terror. Most of the terror groups based in Pakistan target India, he added.

"No country is immune from terror attacks. Challenge of terrorism is a formidable challenge," the Union home minister said.

Chidambaram also said that the two recent terror incidents - Mumbai and Delhi blasts - are indeed a blot on our record.

CPI(Maoist) is the most violent group in the country, Chidambaram said.

The Union home minister was speaking at a conference of police chiefs in Delhi.
