RAWALPINDI – Director General of Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry, has accused India of orchestrating a campaign of state-sponsored terrorism against Pakistan. In a press conference held on Tuesday, April 29, in Rawalpindi, he presented what he described as “irrefutable evidence” of Indian involvement in cross-border terrorism targeting civilians and security forces inside Pakistan.
Chaudhry revealed that Indian military officers have been directly coordinating terrorist attacks within Pakistan’s borders, providing financial support, explosive materials, and tactical instructions to trained operatives.
India Accused of Running a Terror Network Inside Pakistan
According to the DG ISPR, Indian handlers are actively involved in running a well-organized terror network in Pakistan. These operatives, allegedly connected to the Indian army, have been supplying Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), drones, and cash to militants who then carry out attacks on Pakistani soil.

He disclosed that this network was not only limited to border areas but also extended deep within Pakistan, citing multiple instances of coordinated bombings and planned attacks.
Suspect Arrested With Explosives and Cash
On April 25, a Pakistani citizen allegedly trained and sponsored by Indian handlers was apprehended near the Jhelum bus stand. The suspect was found in possession of an IED, two mobile phones, and Rs70,000 in cash. Subsequent raids on his residence reportedly uncovered an Indian-origin drone and Rs1 million in additional cash.
“Forensic analysis of the materials recovered confirms Indian involvement and is verifiable by any independent agency,” Chaudhry stated.
Indian Army Officers Named
In a rare move, the DG ISPR identified several Indian army personnel allegedly involved in directing terror activities inside Pakistan. These included:
- Subedar Sukhwinder (alleged handler)
- Major Sandeep Verma
- Subedar Sukvinder
- Havildar Amit
- Another unnamed Indian soldier
“These individuals are directly sponsoring terrorism with the aim of destabilizing Pakistan and projecting it as a center of global terrorism,” he said.
Chaudhry also shared that Major Sandeep had admitted to coordinating multiple attacks across Pakistan—from Balochistan to Lahore.
Timeline of Alleged Indian-Linked Terror Activities
Lt Gen Chaudhry outlined a timeline of specific incidents, providing exact dates and locations of attacks allegedly directed by Indian handlers:
- November 22, 2024: Subedar Sukhwinder reportedly instructed a Pakistani national, Abdul Majeed, to retrieve an IED and a damaged drone from Head Marala.
- November 30, 2024: Majeed planted the IED on a military vehicle in Jalalpur Jattan, killing four Pakistani personnel. He was allegedly paid Rs656,000 for this act.
- March 18, 2025: Coordinates for another IED were provided near Kotli. A suspicious bag was later found by schoolchildren; a bomb was defused by army personnel.
- April 22, 2025: An IED was reportedly planted near Nadalah and was meant to be detonated at a bus stand the next day.
India’s Allegations Against Pakistan Dismissed
Responding to recent Indian accusations that Pakistan was behind the Pahalgam attack, the DG ISPR said India had failed to present “a shred of evidence.” He highlighted that even after seven days, Indian authorities had not produced any credible proof to support their claims.
Chaudhry countered that it is, in fact, India that is involved in state-sponsored terrorism. He accused Indian media of spreading false propaganda following the recovery of a bomb in Pakistan, which Indian outlets falsely attributed to a discovery in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK).
Call for International Attention
Wrapping up the briefing, DG ISPR urged the international community, human rights organizations, and global counterterrorism agencies to take immediate notice of India’s alleged actions. He emphasized the need for independent verification and global accountability.
“This evidence is only the tip of the iceberg. India must be held accountable for actively funding and directing terrorism within our borders,” he said.
