The fake currency trade has been haunting Indian security establishments as well as economic intelligence agencies for quite a long time. Most recently, in February 2014, the finance minister of India informed the Upper House of Parliament (Rajya Sabha) that counterfeit Indian currency notes worth INR 107.33 crores (approximately US $ 17 million) have been seized between January 2010 and June 2013.  If the intelligence agencies are to be believed, the FICNs are printed in Pakistan and brought to India through couriers via Bangkok, Kathmandu and Dhaka airports.

A detailed study of the Indian Mujahideen, based on a clinical analysis of curated data, is beginning to pay dividends in understanding when the outfit will launch attacks and who its targets will be.

The reality so far in global geopolitics is ‘once a contested land, always a contested land’. The best example has been Jammu & Kashmir (J&K). Over 65 years have passed since the first batch of Pakistani intruders, with the help of army regulars, came face to face with the Indian army, and the violence continues unabated in the J&K. Since then, India and Pakistan have fought at least three major wars and as many skirmishes, with intermittent, mostly half-hearted and ineffective bilateral peace overtures from both sides.

A wave of violent clashes that swept Myanmar’s restive Rakhine State (formerly known as Arakan) in late September left at least five Muslims dead and many members of their community injured and displaced. The epicenter of the violence was the city of Thandwe, which was targeted by a Buddhist mob (Mizzima News [Yangon], October 3). For some time now, Buddhist nationalist groups in Myanmar have opposed Muslim businesses and social practices, creating a sense of mistrust and antagonism between the two communities that frequently erupts in violence.
