Action against terror: Ban not enough, India tells Pak
New Delhi:

India on Thursday said it would see what follow-up action Pakistan takes following imposition of ban on militant outfits Jamaat-ud-Dawah, Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashker-e-Taiba, involved in a number of terror strikes including the Mumbai attacks.

"(The imposition of) Ban is a very good step as it has been reported. We have given information regarding Hafiz Saeed, founder of Jamat-ud-Dawa to Pakistan," Minister of State for External Affairs Shashi Tharoor told reporters outside Parliament.

Pakistan government presented a list of the banned organisations in the National Assembly on Wednesday, which included JuD, LeT, JeM among others.

"We need to see what the follow-up action is," he said.

Meanwhile, Foreign Secretary Nirupama Rao said the government has sought more information from the Indian High Commission in Islamabad on the issue.
