India may strike terrorist bases in Pakistan ananova.com India is considering military attacks on terrorist training bases in Pakistan, according to reports. It comes after a Pakistan-based militant group fighting for the independence of India's Jammu-Kashmir state admitted carrying out a car bomb attack on the Kashmir State Parliament. Forty people were killed and several others were injured. Jaish-e-Mohammed claimed responsibility for the assault, saying a Pakistani citizen had carried out the bombing. The Indian minister of state for home affairs I D Swami told SAB TV that "It's quite possible that we might have to exercise a military option against terrorist camps in Pakistan." He stressed such action would be ordered by Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee only after consultation with other political parties. Farooq Abdullah, the chief minister of Jammu-Kashmir, has urged the Indian government "to attack Pakistan". "If we show restraint the world will laugh at us," he said in a tearful tribute to those who died in the car bomb attack.
