March 11, 2008 17:39 IST

As twin blasts rocked Pakistan, India on Tuesday said it was worried over the situation there and hoped that the new government will be able to restore normalcy.

"We are worried over it," External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee told media persons when asked to comment on the situation

in Pakistan in the wake of latest blasts.

Pranab also hoped that the fight against terror launched by the Pakistan government would be further strengthened.

At least 26 people were killed and over 170 injured in two massive suicide bombings in Lahore that destroyed the federal headquarters of Pakistan's premier probe agency and a house near PPP leader Asif Ali Zardari's residence.
