Terrorism to stay as long as nations sponsor it as state policy: Army chief

New Delhi: Speaking at Raisina Dialogue, Army Gen Bipin Rawat said terrorism is here to stay as long as there are nations that continue to sponsor it as state policy.

“Terrorism is becoming a new form of warfare. It is now spreading its head like a multi-headed monster. There should be negotiations with the Taliban but without conditions. Pakistan has always kept Taliban in its backyard and should be concerned about it,” Rawat said.
