Minister of State for External Affairs Anand Sharma today said that India's reply to the 30 questions posed by Pakistan on the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks was "enough" to take tangible action.

"The evidence given to Pakistan earlier was enough and we will wait to see what tangible action they take to dismantle the terror networks operating on their soil and bring perpetrators of 26/11 to justice," Sharma said replying to a question on reports that Pakistan was unhappy over India's responses.

Sharma said India wishes to see a stable democracy in Pakistan, but volatility in the country and presence of terror networks remain a threat and challenge.

"India's concerns were registered with the international community and the United Nations Security Council identified and named organisations responsible for the 26/11 attacks as international terrorists," he said.

"Pakistan has admitted that the conspiracy was hatched in their country. The only solution now is to dismantle the terror infrastructure," he said.
