The Union Minister of State for Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, here to inaugurate the annual ‘Pashchimi Rajasthan Udyog evam Hastshilp Utsav’, said, “Pakistan is the centre of terror activities. The face of terrorism in the world Osama Bin Laden remained hidden in Pakistan… and now everybody knows this.”
