Share Info on Fresh Terror Threat, Pak Tells India

In the most recent reaction to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s yesterday’s remarks that terror groups based in Pakistan is planning fresh strikes on India, Pakistan has said that it cannot take the remarks “lightly” and is awaiting New Delhi’s response to its request for sharing information in this regard.

“If the (Indian) Prime Minister says something like this, we can’t take it lightly,” Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi told reporters on the sidelines of an official function here.

“If there is such information with (India), share it with the government of Pakistan so that we can pre-empt such an act,” he said in response to a question about Singh’s comments that India had “credible information” of plans by terrorist groups in Pakistan to carry out fresh attacks.

“We have conveyed this to them and let’s see what is their response,” he added.
