Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has announced that Pakistan-based terror groups are plotting fresh attacks on Indian soil.
Stressing that "cross-border terrorism remains the most pervasive threat" in India, the premier also said there had been a surge in infiltration attempts across the border with Pakistan.
He added that terrorists were now active in all parts of India, extending their operationas far beyond the confines of Jammu and Kashmir.
To face the new threat, Singh said that India has been forced to place additional measures across the country, especially after the Mumbai attacks in November last year.
The bloodshed which killed over 160 people in India's financial capital severely strained relations between the two nuclear-armed neighbors.
India blames Pakistan-based militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba of planning and executing the November terrorist attack.
It also accuses Pakistan of arming and training cross-border militants in Kashmir -- a charge Islamabad vehemently denies.
