Good proof of Pak hand in 7/11: Narayanan
|
1
India has made it clear that Pakistan ought "to deliver" on persons and hideouts found involved in terrorist activities for the success of the joint terrorism pact. The bottomline was clearly spelt out in an interview to a private TV channel by national security adviser M K Narayanan when he said India will present "pretty good evidence" on the role of Pakistan in the 7/11 Mumbai train blasts in which the police have implicated top Lashkar-e-Taiba operative Azam Cheema as the mastermind.
'Action' on names and addresses, as stated by the NSA, could be interpreted liberally from a crackdown on anti-India terror shops to extradition of suspects. The NSA said Prime Minister Manmohan Singh believed the terror was routed through Pakistan and Bangladesh as he went on to dismiss charges that Singh had dropped his guard on terrorism by calling Pakistan a "victim of terror" in Havana.
The bid to clarify that the Havana statement did not aim to put India and Pakistan on the same footing, laced with assertions that the "PM is not naive" and a categorical implication of ISI in anti-India operations, is significant. "I don't think any leader who has met him (the PM) or any person across the world has misunderstood what the PM has wanted to say," the NSA said.

To the charges being hurled at Singh, he said, "There are elements in the country who are very anxious to paint the PM as somebody who is naive or weak." The assertions come in the wake of heartburn among intelligence agencies over the PM calling Pakistan a victim of terror. Officials feel while it may be so, Pakistan has long supported terrorism as an instrument of foreign policy.
Strongly stating that acting on Indian's information will be the litmus test for the joint terror mechanism, Narayanan looked to lift the haze of ambiguity that the PM had made concessions to accommodate Pakistan on the pact.
