Turkey has become a center for anti-Indian activities pushed forward by Pakistani intelligence, Tribune India writes, citing reports by Indian special services.

“The expansion of Turkey’s foreign policy footprint tallies with Ankara’s attempt to influence Muslims beyond the Arab heartland. Despite a failed attempt to form a grouping with Pakistan and Malaysia, ties with ISI turned warmer and have gone beyond Kashmir to backing Islamist organisations in India that share their global perspective.

The report to NSC Secretariat speaks of three-pronged efforts by the Turkish government and related institutions -- by media (employment to Kashmiri journalists); educational institutes (well paying scholarships) and NGOs (influence Indian Muslims on foreign policy inimical to Indian interests),” Tribune India wrote, in particular.
