Act against 26/11 accused: PM Modi, Abe tell Pak

September 14, 2017 18:56

Stressing on "zero tolerance" against terrorism, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Japanese counterpart Shinzo Abe called upon all countries to work towards rooting out terrorist safe havens and infrastructure, disrupting their networks and financing channels and halting cross-border movement of terrorists, in an apparent reference to Pakistan.

After jointly inaugurating work on India's first bullet train, Modi and Abe held summit talks and signed 15 agreements to enhance strategic partnership, agreeing to strengthen cooperation in the Indo-Pacific region where China is increasingly assertive.

A joint statement said India and Japan also agreed to strengthen cooperation against terror groups like Al Qaeda, ISIS and Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Tayiba, calling upon Islamabad to act against those behind 2008 Mumbai terror attack and Pathankot.
