Even after the terrorist-secessionist movement for Khalistan was comprehensively defeated in 1993, a handful of terrorist groups continued to operate, chiefly supported by Pakistan and some non-resident Indian Sikh groups. One of the most prominent among them is the Babbar Khalsa International (BKI). It is among the oldest and most organised Khalistan terrorist groups. It was active throughout 1980s in the Punjab insurgency but its influence declined in the 1990s after several senior members were killed.VideoVideo: 2012 Tribute to Babbar Khalsa InternationalVideo: 2011 Two suspected terrorists of Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) were arrested with police on Friday (December 23) claiming that some politicians and religious leaders were on their target.

Groups and individuals included in TRAC's database range from actual perpetrators of social or political violence to more passive groups that support or condone (perhaps unwittingly) such violence. The spectrum of violence represented by these groups is vast, from Jihadists who bomb train stations to financial institutions that transfer funds. Some groups that originally engaged in violence but have since become legitimate political parties are included to provide historical perspective. TRAC is in no way attempting to determine whether groups or individuals are terrorists -- only to convey reported information about their activities and official State status. While TRAC attempts to ensure the accuracy of its TRAC database, the entries in the database are from numerous different sources. Hence, TRAC cannot and does not warrant the accuracy of the entries in its database. The editors of TRAC may modify these entries at any time and welcome comments and suggested corrections or additions. Please write [email protected] or hit the "SUBMIT ADDITIONS" button on the page of the group profile about which you wish to comment.
