The government has found evidence that terror camps were being run on Indian soil by the banned Students Islamic Movement of India and "right-wing majoritarian groups," the Rajya Sabha was informed on Wednesday.
"In two cases investigated by the National Investigation Agency, evidence has come that training camps were organised by SIMI and right-wing majoritarian groups or their cadres," Minister of State for Home RPN Singh said in reply to a written question.
Singh said the NIA has arrested 33 accused belonging to SIMI and 26 accused belonging to majoritarian groups.
"Further, the government is committeed towards thwarting any evil design/plan of terrorists or terror groups/outfits to carry out attacks in any part of the country in all forms or manifestations, as no cause can justify terror attacks," he said.
