New Delhi (TIP): India has proposed an action plan against terror outfits like Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) as part of the framework of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO), which also includes as its members Pakistan and China. India’s proposal was put forth by National Security Adviser (NSA) Ajit Doval at the 16th meeting of NSAs at Dushanbe in Tajikistan. India also pressed for full implementation of UN resolutions and sanctions against UN-designated terrorists and terror entities, sources said. Doval also proposed adoption of international standards to counter terror financing, including an MoU between the SCO and FATF. At the moment, Pakistan is the only SCO member that is on FATF’s grey list and a decision whether it will remain on its watch list will be announced on Friday. The NSA also suggested the need to monitor new technologies used by terrorists, including drones for smuggling of weapons and misuse of dark web, artificial intelligence, blockchain and social media.
