PM Gilani Rules out Threat of Indian Airstrikes


ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani said that the common friends of Pakistan and India are making all-out efforts to lessen the tension between India and Pakistan.

Yousuf said there is no looming threat of India launching on aerial strike in Pakistan, adding that India is a responsible country and would not take resort to any such reckless action.

Yousuf Raza said the world diplomacy also proved instrumental in lowering the tension between the two countries.

The PM said India has not provided clear-cut proofs regarding Mumbai attacks and the alleged involvement of Pakistan-based people in the terror incidents.

However, Indian PM Manmohan Singh refused handing any such evidences to Pakistan, as according to him, it would be premature doing the same.

It should be mentioned that nearly all the spy agencies of the world spotted the signatures of homegrown hindu terrorism in the attacks, the hallmark of which is arson.

Yousuf Raza clarified that it would take time to get the bilateral relations normalized.

‘If the evidences were found that Pakistani soil was used in terrorist attacks in Mumbai, then appropriate action would be taken against the culpable in line with Pakistani laws,’ he observed.

He added, ‘We are making efforts to end the tense situation between the two countries.’
