Pakistan's Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi has denied Islamabad's role in last year's Mumbai terror attacks, but claimed that his government has concrete evidence to prove Indian involvement in the ongoing terror activities in Pakistan. "Now, it has been admitted globally that Pakistan was not involved in the Mumbai terrorist attacks. We have concrete evidence regarding Indian involvement in terror activities in Pakistan," the Daily Times quoted Qureshi, as saying in an interview with an Arab TV channel. Qureshi added that the Mumbai carnage was plotted by elements that wished to sabotage Indo-Pak relations. "Economic progress is vital to counter extremism in the region," he said. Qureshi also urged the international community to press India to understand that there was no alternative to dialogue to establish sustainable peace in the region. At least 170 people died in coordinated shooting and bomb attacks in Mumbai on November 26 last year. All but Ajmal Kasab, a Pakistani national, had died in the attacks.
