| Pakistan dismissed allegations by India that the attack on Indian parliament was carried out by the activists of Jaish-i-Muhammad on the instigation of Inter-Services Intelligence agency. Gen Rashid Qureshi rejected Delhi police report, terming it a "baseless" and "concocted". Qureshi reiterated the offer of cooperation made by Islamabad to New Delhi soon after the attack for holding a joint enquiry. "We are ready to give a firm assurance that if on the basis of a joint enquiry anybody based in Pakistan was found involved in the attack we will proceed against him." He took serious exception to the tone and tenor adopted by the Indian government in the wake of the attack. The Indian leaders have started hurling threats of aggression, something which was totally uncalled for and unacceptable for Pakistan, he added. Pakistan armed forces were prepared to thwart any act of aggression by India. |
