The Moody’s-backed attack count is broadly real, but the clip misdates it, overgeneralizes the geography, and mixes in unsupported claims about where attacks happened.
Claim-by-claim breakdown
Accurate (92% confidence): Moody’s reported that India experienced 6,024 terrorist attacks over a 20-year period around 1994–2013. Coverage of Moody’s 2015 report says India faced 6,024 attacks from 1994 to 2013.
Accurate (78% confidence): India had about one terrorist attack per day over that 20-year period. 6,024 attacks across 20 years averages a little under one attack per day.
Accurate (88% confidence): Moody’s said India faced 690 terror attacks in 2013. Media coverage of Moody’s report states India had 690 terror attacks in 2013.
False (97% confidence): All terror attacks in India happened within a 100 km south Kashmir radius, except for one Delhi case. Recorded major attacks occurred in multiple Indian cities and regions outside Kashmir, so the 'all attacks within 100 km' claim is not true.
Unsupported (35% confidence): There was a Delhi terror case involving about 3,000 kg of explosives. Recent news reports mention a Delhi blast and a separate seizure of about 2,900 kg of explosives, but the transcript’s wording is ambiguous.
Accurate (86% confidence): Terrorism can damage economies, and security affects investor confidence and growth. Moody’s and other research note that terrorism can weaken GDP growth, investment, and confidence.
