The Government of India on Friday welcomed the United States’ decision to designate The Resistance Front (TRF) as a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) and a Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT) entity.
In a statement, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) called the move a significant step in the global fight against terrorism and reaffirmed India’s continued cooperation with international partners to ensure terrorist groups and their proxies are held accountable.
“The TRF, a proxy of the Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Tayyiba (LeT), has been involved in numerous terror activities, including the heinous attack on civilians in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, on April 22, 2025, for which it twice claimed responsibility,” the MEA stated.
The government emphasized that such coordinated global actions are vital to dismantle terror networks operating across borders and ensure justice for victims of terrorism.
