INDIA today said 42 militant training camps were operating in Pakistan and accused the country’s government of making little effort to close them.

The accusation came after the foreign secretaries of India and Pakistan met last month for the first official talks since the 2008 attacks on Mumbai.

“There are 42 terror camps in Pakistan (and) all the terrorist camps are active,” defence minister AK Antony said at a military function in Goa.

“Pakistan has not taken serious steps to destroy these terror camps,” he said.

The recent talks between India and Pakistan resulted only in a promise that both sides would stay in communication.

“As far as the dialogue is concerned, India will explore all possibilities but I don’t expect any miracles,” Antony said.
