Lashkar-e-Taiba Leader Meets PoK Politician Amid Efforts to Rebuild Post-Operation Sindoor

Senior Lashkar-e-Taiba leader Hafiz Talha Saeed recently met with former Pakistan-occupied Kashmir Prime Minister Sardar Attique Ahmed Khan and other religious figures to discuss the Kashmir issue, Pakistan's political situation, and upcoming PoK elections. Indian intelligence sources view this meeting as part of LeT's efforts to rebuild terror infrastructure and recruitment networks in PoK following India's Operation Sindoor, which targeted multiple LeT-linked sites. The group is reportedly renovating facilities and upgrading logistics near the Line of Control to support cross-border activities.
