LONDON, Oct 10: Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, on a visit to London, reiterated on Tuesday that New Delhi would provide Islamabad with evidence of alleged Pakistani involvement in the deadly Mumbai train bombings.
Pakistan’s foreign ministry has pledged to take action if rival neighbour India produced any evidence of ISI’s involvement.
“We will take advantage of that offer of Pakistan and we will provide what we consider as credible evidence to that effect,” Dr Singh said at a joint news conference with British Prime Minister Tony Blair.
Asked if India and Pakistan had agreed to set up a joint working group on Kashmir, Dr Singh said: “You have to address the joint statement issued by me and President Musharraf after our meetings in Havana.
“We have reaffirmed our commitment to discuss and resolve all outstanding issues, including the issue of Jammu and Kashmir.
“In addition, we have agreed to set up an institutional mechanism to deal with terrorist threats and that mechanism is now in the process of being worked out.”
Mr Blair added that he and Dr Singh had agreed “that we’ve got to send the strongest possible signal everywhere that terrorism cannot be tolerated, whether it’s in Mumbai, London, Kashmir, wherever it is.
“No country, no government, no state should support it.”
