ISLAMABAD - Pakistan on Monday termed as "unhelpful" the Indian Foreign Minister Pranab Mukherjee's remarks that Islamabad is still in "denial mode" over cross-border terrorism and said it was committed to bringing the perpetrators of Mumbai attacks to justice. In his reaction to the Indian Foreign Minister's remarks, Foreign Office Spokesman Abdul Basit said that Mukherjee's remarks "were unhelpful". The Indian Minister for External Affairs also said that Pakistan's peace deal with religious hardliners linked to the Taliban in Swat was a matter of concern for India. The Pakistani spokesperson said, "The entire international community has praised Pakistan for its earnestness and cooperation in bringing the perpetrators of the Mumbai attacks to justice." "Pakistan will continue working towards this end," he said. Agencies adds: India promised to respond to any information sought by Pakistan in connection with probe into the Mumbai attacks but underlined that the request should come through official channels only. India will cooperate "as and when" necessary, Indian External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee said on Monday, ruling ruled out a joint investigation in the attacks. "Whatever information we get from Pakistan, we respond to it. But information must be made available through official channels and not through media," he told reporters in New Delhi. He said India is ready to cooperate with Pakistan "as and when it is necessary" in its investigation into the Mumbai attacks and in this direction referred to the material provided to Islamabad about linkages in that country. "As far as joint investigation is concerned, I have told you we are having investigation," he said. After being provided the dossier of evidence on Mumbai attacks, Pakistan has sought more information and in this regard given a list of 30 questions. India, meanwhile, has said it is examining it and will provide whatever information is possible. Talking to reporters in Khatkar Kalan in Punjab, the ancestral village of martyr Bhagat Singh, Indian Home Minister P Chidambaram on Monday said Pakistan's bid to compromise with the Taliban could be a threat to the whole Indian Sub-Continent. Terming Pakistan as the epicentre of terrorism in the world, Chidambaram said Pakistan has been "forced" by the Indian policy to admit that its soil was being used for what he said terrorist attacks on India. "Taliban is an issue that concerns Pakistan. If Pakistan compromises with the Taliban, that will affect the security of the entire region. I think Pakistan must realise that," Chidambaram told reporters in this ancestral village of martyr Bhagat Singh in Punjab. About the probe into the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks, he said a chargesheet into the incident would be filed before the court in a couple of days. "Our policy has paid results and we have forced Pakistan to admit that the terrorists came from Pakistan and that their soil was used to launch the terrorist attack (on Mumbai). They have taken some action. They have promised to take more action. We will watch and see if they take more action to take this case to its logical conclusion," the Indian Home Minister said. "Now we expect Pakistan to continue the investigations. We will, of course, file a chargesheet in the Mumbai court in the next couple of days. We expect them to punish all those who were behind the terror attack. They must dismantle the terrorist infrastructure that has been built in Pakistan in the last 10-15 years," he added. Chidambaram remained non-committal on immediate friendship between both countries. "We want to be friends with Pakistan but the friendship has mutual arrangement. The government in Pakistan cannot allow its territory to be used for terrorist attacks on India. Pakistan is the epicentre of terrorism. That must stop," Chidambaram said.
