Mumbai, Nov. 26: Criticising Pakistan for its lacklustre approach towards investigating the 26/11 attacks, the Union home minister, Mr P. Chidambaram, on Friday said India would need to be extra cautious about Pakistan as it has failed to keep its word to hand over the seven identified terrorists. “While India trusts its neighbours, we must be on guard,” said Mr Chidambaram during a function here to honour the 26/11 martyrs’ families.
The Union home minister was in Mumbai to commemorate the occasion of the terror attacks and hand over the operations of the Mahanagar Gas Ltd’s CNG outlet at Magathane to martyred police constable Tukaram Omble’s family.
“On a day like this, while we renew our pledge that we will do everything to secure citizens, it is my duty to caution the people that they have a neighbour who has not fulfilled its promises to the country,” he said.
“Pakistan made many promises to India. We were assured justice after the 26/11 attacks. However, nothing has been done so far,” said Mr Chidambaram.
