ANSWER: Proposal to share terrorist information between India and US
 
  • The Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD-6) is an agreement for exchange of terrorist screening information between the Terrorist Screening Centre (TCS) of the U.S. and a selected Indian security agency. The TCS has the database of 11,000 terror suspects.
  • The database has names of terror suspects, their nationality, date of birth, photos, finger prints and passport number.
  • Both RAW and IB objected to this proposal citing security and privacy concerns.
