Minister of State for Home Affairs Ajay Maken told the Lok Sabha that reports "indicate that women are being trained in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir for terror activities".

"Pakistan-based terrorist groups, including the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), are reported to be active in organising acts of terror," he said.

LeT is a banned militant organisation in Pakistan. It is said to be behind major terror activities in the past one decade including the audacious 26/11 Mumbai terror attack last year.
