We wont allow anti-India activities, says Bhutan PM

Bhutan is a peaceful nation and we would not allow any insurgency group to operate from our land, he said while talking to newsmen here.
He said a few years back some anti-India insurgency groups had managed to enter into Bhutan but Bhutanese military threw them out.
They had entered into our deep jungles. We had to use our military to throw them out so that they cannot be a threat to India, he said. Replying to a question, the Bhutanese prime minister expressed happiness that the relationship between India and ChinaBhutans two immediate neighbourshad improved.
