Pakistan today reacted to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's remarks on terror groups planning fresh attacks on India from Pakistani soil by saying that New Delhi should share such information with Islamabad to help "pre-empt any act of terror".
Pakistan on Monday asked India to provide an early update on the probe into the 2007 Samjhauta Express bombing in the wake of a Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangha leader's confession about the involvement of Sangh activists in the attack, in which most of the victims were Pakistanis.
In an apparent reference to Swami Aseemanand's confession to a special court in New Delhi, a statement issued by the Foreign Office said the Indian diplomat's "attention was drawn to the recent reports in the media on the investigations into the Samjhauta Express blasts of February 2007".
Pakistan has handed over to India its latest dossier on the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks and a formal request regarding its proposal to send a commission to interview key witnesses in India in connection with the trial of seven Pakistani suspects linked to the incident.
Pakistan's foreign ministry called the Indian Deputy Commissioner to register a protest over what it described as unprovoked firing by Indian troops across the Line of Control, diplomatic sources said on Tuesday.
Pakistan's Foreign Office apparently sent an official known for his ability to read faces to receive Indian Foreign Secretary Nirupama Rao on her arrival in Rawalpindi in a bid to find out what was on her mind.
