Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Tuesday said he is hopeful of a change in Pakistan's attitude on tackling terrorism emanating from its soil against India but one has to wait and watch.
"The Home Minister (P Chidambaram) was in Pakistan last week. You must have read what he has stated. I think there is some hope. As I have said in dealing with Pakistan our attitude has to be trust -- trust but verify," Dr Singh told media persons accompanying him on his way back home after attending the G-20 Summit in Toronto.
Dr Singh was replying to a question that while he was working hard on making peace with Pakistan, how India proposes to go ahead in case of another 26/11 type attack.
He had on Monday pressed US President Barack Obama to convince Pakistan to take strong action against terrorists involved in anti-India activities in that country following disclosures made by LeT operative David Headley.
Dr Singh, who met Obama on the sidelines of the G-20 Summit, briefed him about the peace initiatives with Pakistan but made it clear that Islamabad should abide by its commitment of not to allow terrorism emanating from its soil directed against India.
The activities of Headley came up for discussion in the light of information coming out of Pakistani-American LeT operative after his interrogation by Indian investigators.
