Indo-Pak Joint Anti-Terror Mechanims: Perspectives from Pakistan
   ·   01 Sep, 2009   ·   126    ·    Issue Brief

India-Pakistan anti-terrorism cooperation can rightly  be classified as a 'fishermen model' that is, you catch a fish when it comes to you! This implies an absence of sustained and pro-active interaction versus the issue of terrorism, undermining peace and stability within and beyond their respective territorial boundaries.

Why is it so? How can both India and Pakistan jointly move forward towards eradicating terrorism? How did India and Pakistan resolve to form a bilateral or Joint Anti-Terror Mechanism? What factors or variables have marred and continue to impact the smooth sailing of JATM? Finally, how to ensure sustained Indo-Pak interaction through Joint Anti-Terror Mechanisms?
