QUILL IAM incorporates agencies such as the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), the National Security Guard (NSG), and the National Investigation Agency (NIA), as well as implementation of the National Intelligence Grid (NATGRID) 86 . Funding (internal and external): India’s counter-terrorism strategy is reliant on its relationship with its neighbors: the nation’s borders with Pakistan and Bangladesh, especially in rural areas, remains extremely porous and susceptible to illegal border crossings. According to the Institute of Conflict Management, 27 youths were arrested or detained in 2014 for attempting to join IS, with 10 Indians fighting amongst IS ranks. 87 34
NEW AG EN T S OF GLOB AL JIHAD PART 4 POLICY RECOMMENDATIONS Having reviewed the efforts that are being made on behalf of the Pakistani, Afghan, and Indian administrations in order to combat the proliferation of Islamist extremism, this report will now provide a series of nation-specific policy recommendations that ought to be implemented in order to expedite this process. Again, Jammu and Kashmir present a special case, and in light of the balance of power that exists within this region, this report has differentiated between Indian and Pakistani administered Jammu and Kashmir, and has made policy recommendations accordingly. However, before our nation specific policy recommendations are presented, a series of general policy recommendations will be made that can be used to inform the development of future counter-terrorism and counter-extremism efforts in South Asia. It is important to remember that this affects policy makers in Britain because 43.4% of Muslims in Britain are of British Asian descent 88 , making issues in India and Pakistan of particular importance to a large segment of Britain’s population.

According to Transparency International, South Asia is the most corrupt region in the world, 89 and until steps are taken to improve Governmental transparency, culture, and accountability, counter-extremism efforts will be significantly limited. Additionally, there is a strong positive correlation between poverty and a susceptibility to extremist narratives, and because corruption undermines the propensity for individuals to cross the “barrier of poverty,” 90 the need for a reduction in institutionalized corruption is stressed. The appeal of movements such as IS is financial as well as ideological: for many in rural, low income areas of South Asia the IS wage of $400 per month 91 could be attractive. If this monetary incentive is extended to IS’ self-declared allies in South Asia, 35
