NEW DELHI, Nov 30: Pro-Indian Kashmiri leader Farooq Abdullah has said the Indian government should stop blaming Pakistan for the Mumbai bloodbath.

He told The Tribune daily in Jammu that instead of wasting time on a blame game, Pakistan and India should launch joint efforts to combat terrorism because New Delhi alone could not eliminate it.

“We must make a combined effort to deal with the problem and at the same time help the Pakistan government and its people to come out of the morass of terrorism,” he said.

“Islamabad (itself) is trying to deal with the problem, so linking the Pakistan government with the Mumbai attack is not wise on our part,” he added.—APP
