NEW DELHI: Defence minister A K Antony on Tuesday said India is not planning any military action against Pakistan.However, he added that Pakistan will have to take action against terrorists involved in the Mumbai attacks for the relations between the two countries to be normal.
Pakistan has already turned down a British request to question suspects arrested in connection with the Mumbai attacks.
British Prime Minister Gordon Brown visited Islamabad at the weekend in a bid to calm tensions between Pakistan and India in the wake of the attacks in the Indian metropolis that left 172 dead.
A CNN report quoted unnamed Pentagon officials as saying that IAF began “preliminary preparations” for “a possible attack” against Pakistan in the immediate aftermath of the Mumbai massacre.
Sources in the government also said there had been some thought of “action” but that after the first few days, international attention on India and pressure on Pakistan diluted the Indian intention.
