India on Monday handed over to Pakistan evidence about involvement of elements based in that country in the Mumbai terror attacks and asked Islamabad to implement its commitments.
Stepping up the diplomatic offensive, External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee said he has written to his counterparts around the world and that countries are being briefed separately giving details of the Mumbai attacks and its links in Pakistan.
"We have today handed over to Pakistan evidence of the links with elements in Pakistan of the terrorists who attacked Mumbai on November 26, 2008," Mukherjee told reporters in New Delhi.
Pakistan High Commissioner Shahid Malik was summoned by Foreign Secretary Shivshankar Menon to hand over the material.
Describing the Mumbai attacks as "unpardonable crime", Mukherjee asked Pakistan to implement the bilateral commitments it has made at the highest levels to India and practice its international obligations.
The evidence includes confession of Ajmal Amir Kasab, the lone Pakistani terrorist held during Mumbai terror strikes, records of GPS and satellite phones used by the attackers and transcript of conversations between the attackers and their handlers in Pakistan.
It also includes details about weapons and other articles recovered.
"This material is linked to elements in Pakistan. It is our expectation that the government of Pakistan will promptly undertake further investigations in Pakistan and share the results with us so as to bring the perpetrators to justice," the Ministry of External Affairs said in a statement.
"We are also briefing all our friendly countries," the External Affairs Minister said.
"I have written to my counterparts around the world giving them details of the events in Mumbai and describing in some detail the progress that we have made in our investigations and the evidence that we have collected," Mukherjee said.
The External Affairs Ministry will also be briefing all heads of missions based in Delhi by Tuesday. Indian ambassadors and high commissioners will be doing the same in their host countries, he said.
"It is my hope that the world will unite to achieve the goal of eliminating the threat of such terrorism," Mukherjee said.
India hoped that Pakistan will implement its "bilateral, multilateral and international obligations to prevent terrorism in any manner from territory under its control".

India will continue to give evidences of Pakistany complicity in the terror attacks and Pakistan will continue to reject them. The important question is whether India is going to do anything to destroy the terror camps in the Pakistan territory. Now that the international sentiments are in India's favour, at least superficially, it is time for India to take some decisive action instead of submitting evidences and wait for Pakistan to reject them to prepare fresh reports for submission. It is foolish to expect any other country in this world to fight a proxy war for India. India has to fight its wars against terrorism ourselves.
The whole world know what is pakistan. We don't want relation with wolfs. As Virender said that is the best policy. Let terririst do their job and we keep on progressing like signing India. This 60 years given us the singing India image and terrorist country image to PAK. This itself an achievement. And you Paki Wolfs you deserve the terrism style of life style. You have never had a taste of true life hence you are barking. If you are so capable all three times in war what result whole world knows. and now don't cry we will be on same trend of development like PAK nagative and India signing. Whole world witnessed.
what we are going to do with those terrorist even if they are handed over to us ? . keep pushing the final justice for political milage ? giving them the heroic aura by giving media interviews ? Callling them mislead youths and get votebank advantage ? Call them the victims of terror ideology ? waiting for another hostage drama to release them ?.lets answer these questions before we get them here
Quite right!!It may be better that the culprits remain in Pakistan where under the pressure of international community they may even be prosecuted successfully.In India, with the election season approaching, they may end up getting padma vibhushan or something
Its very right, they may enjoy life here and may even get elected to our parliament, till such time plan and execute operations while sitting in the jails.
Does the UPA have guts to unilaterally declare Pakistan, the land of the pure terrorism as a Terrorist State and tell the world that we would consider all those who deal with them as Terrorist.
This much guts...are you kidding???If we had even a fraction of that...we would have shown them a good reply. We are a courageless country.
is pakistan in America?
This is worth pondering over. It actually could qualify to be 51st state of US.
What.Our govt were saying from a month that we have provided the evidence to Pak.But Actually today they transferred them.Why were our Government telling lies before ?Sadly But It means Pakistan were saying right that there were no evedence provided By India.We were just doing false Propaganda against them regarding the transfer of evidence to Pakistan.
Absolutely spot on Rajiv...Your government was lying to your people...You see man at the end of the day its all about politics...I would suggest that you read Rohit Saxen'a comments below...i agree 100% with Rohit as well
Agreed VikramIts look like a great drama.Our media is making stupid stories [like ship coming from karachi 1000 miles unnoticed]We have lost our Great ATS chief.Our Govt is saying something and now proved a liar today.[for proof submission]Oh God Save us from these conspiracy making people who are actually weekeing us.We don't have gain anything from 1971 as Bangladesh is now becoming our one more enemy.
A SICK PRIDELESS COUNTRY WHICH CANNOT HANDLE A BRAZEN PRO-PAKISTANI FIFTH COLUMNIST LIKE ABDUL ANTULAY , HOW IS IT GOING TO HANDLE AN INTERNATIONAL TERRORIST LIKE PAKISTAN. THE PAKIS IN CONNIVANCE WITH THE AMERICANS AND THE BRITISH ARE RUNNING RINGS AROUND A DHIMMI INFESTED INDIA.
India must not indulge in such pressure tactics against brother muslims who are a secular and progressive lot. By attacking a secular community, India is going on the path of unsecularism. It is also alienating the muslim brothers of Pakistan in India who is the largest vote bank, and the great religious leaders of Muslim in India are related by common ideals of pan islamic secular umma with muslims of the world, especially Pakistan. They are the key to our successful relationship with Middle East, on whom India has always depended for goodwill. Instead of picking up fight with our brother secular Muslims, they should build CBM. Also note that acknowledged secular Left Front ally Chin is also Pakistan and Muslim friend. By pressuring Pakistan just because a few Hindu died is hence very unsecular, and Muslim in India, remember, will only vote those seculars who will listen to Pakistan and accept their demands, since Pakistan is the legitimate voice of Muslim in India too.
Why do you use cover to make your point. Each individual here is aware that you are a Radical disguising as a Hindu.you are ashamed to called a muslims therefore this natak.
Have you not seen the 40 Indian muslims who gave up their lives in the Mumbai carnage .The ratio of Muslims dead vs the total is more than the 13 % for the whole country which means that proportionately higher numbers of Muslims died among all Indians who lost their lives . Indian Muslims are as thirsty for the Blood of LeT operatives as Hindus . So you're just a paki citizen trying to acquit the terrorist state of Pakistan from the wrath of human beings with human values . Indians don go after anybody's land or wealth only react when hit upon .
This "shameless Indian secular hindu" who is posting messages on this page is a Simi or a JeM who is net sauve and tries to do his small things in a small way.These people are spreading there activities in India like virus.They are thriving on dirt and are causing different types of disease.INDIA AS A WHOLE HAS TO RISE AND BE UNITED TO FIGHT N IRRADICATE THIS TERRORISM FROM ITS LAND.TAKE CARE NOT TO DISTURB THE COMMUNAL HARMONY AS THIS TIME OUR MUSLIM BRETHREN HAVE ALSO AWAKENED TO REALISE THE CUNNINGNESS OF PAKISTANI GOVERNMENT AND THE TERRORISTS HARBOURED BY THEM.
What an IQ dude? Don't you see the sarcasm in his mail.
u r not only shameless but also senseless. I am sure you are a terriorist.
There are bleak chances if the terrorist nation-Pakistan accepts the Evidence as authentic. Earlier evidences of different terrorist activities were given to Pakistan but all in vain. Nothing happened to the terrorists staying under shelter of Pak government. India should act hard and capture the entire accupied Kashmir as the ISREAL is teaching lesson to such type of JEHADIES.
India should impose and force developed nations to impose Economic sanctions on Pak as the first step
dear AllCut out this massive war hysteria hype.....Both India and Pakistan are nuclear armed Nations and this war talk will not help either one of them....We should all sit down together like good neighbours and resolve all the issues through reconciliation since war is not at all an option because war brings nothing but humantarian crises...and our economies cannot at all afford such a crises...
India should have Sitting across the table with a nation of its level and terrorist nation Pakistasn stands nowhere. Pakistani Nuke-bomb is technology theft from China.
helo maziuum the whole world knows who export terrorism in this world.Pakistan is famous for terrorism,drugs and instability in administration.Can u show a single achievement of pak during the 60 years.Despite many set back India is shining among the world for its unity,secular/democratic and socialistic nature its maintaining.And progressing rapidly in all fronts.One can understand pakistan's envy over this matters.
The two "I"s Israel and India are the biggest terrorists in the world......
yes you donkey, had v been terrorist you would not have existed
Your statment may be accepted as proof in some kangaroo court in Pak
Hurray More than 500 Muslims killed in gaza.But why you need to worry.you breed so fast 500 can be recovered within minutes.I wish India take some lessons from Israel.I have throughly understand Mulsim genetics now why they hate India,Israel,USA.and whats going on in Saudi Arab(Daddy of Islam) where this genetical change happen.
we can never be friendly with an insane nation like pakistan whose only national policy is to attack and bleed india. our so called leaders or "empty talkers" should understand. attack them is the best defence.
So what the hell have you been prating on about then if the evidence was handed over to them just now? Was all the 'hoopla' only for public appeasement and to divert attention from your own failures?Do you have any idea how idiotic this makes you look?
What's wrong with you man ? We never said that we had already given evidence to Paikstan. Probably you haven't been following the news..it seems !!!
No jkm its you who do not know the history and again its you who is not following the news...you see India has never accepted Pakistan since inception. who attacked Pakistan in 1965? in 1971? who is killing Dalits, Muslims, christians and other minorities in India?? Who was behind the Malegon(Samjotha express) blast? whom was Karkare about to expose before he was martyered?? Who was giving him death threats?? Who is the beneficiary of Mumbai carnage??Why Indian media started accusing Pakistan within 6 hours of attack? What do you say about the timing of Mumbai massacre, was this a coincidence that elections were around the corner?
Dear Rohit....i am not disputing anything what you said. My only contention was that the Indian Government never claimed that it had submitted the entire evidence to the Pakistan Government. I do not mean to absolve the role played by the vested interests in any way whatsoever.
If pakistan doing wrong things. even they are ready to fight with us. we should take majour action for our safety concern.
Dear foreign min, pak will not help you because hitting india is their national policy. State, non state, civil govt, army and ISI are all same . Now what next ? Our leaders are best in making statements and they have done it, nobody will come and fight for us or resolve our problems. Now there is no point attacking pak since element of surprise is lost. We must now make it a national policy to bleed pak till the time they behave, this bleeding could be through hitting their economic interest, keeping their defence forces on toes by agressive posture on the border, sky and sea, stop indus water to them, penetration of their int agencies and tit for tat policy in the field of terrorism i.e. a low cost war etc. Stop thought of better relations with them in future and without any pause launch military strike if we have any mumbi repeat. ON TERRORISM HAVE ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY WITH PAK.
listen Mr Cowboy!!Do you really think that we are just gonna sit here and do nothing about your evil designs....Think again EVIL GENIUS? because We will retaliate in self defense and drop couple of nukes over your roof....if you have one.....rest assurred...
U r not lions, wolfs. Come straight and attack if u can? one day your are going to pay for what you are doing now, terrorists
well....we are attacking you straight...its you and your leaders who are barking since 26/11 and doing nothing....we are on course....
Very little time left for pak to be in civilised society, talibans are approaching fast, then people won't be able to comment in english.
yeah hold on a little while...and we shall surely send some Taliban suicide bombers to your neighbourhood...then it will be something like thisDind Dong. you will go out to open the door (if you have one) and then KABOOM...you will be history...
