Indian Intelligence Claims Pakistan-Based Groups Recruiting Women Through Covert Training Programs
\n——————————————
\nIndian intelligence agencies have assessed that Pakistan-based militant groups are recruiting women through covert programs disguised as vocational, religious, and personal development courses, according to reports published by Indian media.<\/p>\n
News18, citing senior Indian security officials, reported that the assessment is based on months of intelligence gathering and suggests that several militant organizations have introduced specialized programs to identify and recruit women for support and operational roles.<\/p>\n
The reported courses last between two and four weeks and are allegedly presented as religious instruction, skills training, or character-building programs. Indian officials claimed some women\u2019s madrasas have been used to host the sessions, with participants organized into structured batches and assigned training based on perceived abilities.<\/p>\n
According to the report, the alleged training includes logistics, communications, technology-related tasks, intelligence gathering, drone operations, and so-called \u201choney-trap\u201d activities. Officials also claimed some sites in Pakistan, including Bahawalpur and Faisalabad, are believed to be linked to the programs.<\/p>\n
The report further alleged that recruitment is being carried out through family and community networks, with some training conducted online.<\/p>\n
The claims have not been independently verified, and Pakistani authorities had not publicly responded to the specific allegations at the time of publication. Pakistan has consistently rejected Indian accusations that it supports militant groups operating against India.<\/p>\n
The allegations come amid longstanding tensions between India and Pakistan over cross-border militancy and regional security.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
