New Delhi, Aug 6 - Cautiously welcoming Pakistan's ban on militant outfits, India Thursday asked Islamabad to take action against those involved in the Mumbai attacks, including Hafiz Saeed, and sought details about the Interpol's alert for 13 suspects wanted by Pakistan police in connection with 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 Jamaat-ud-Daawa (JuD) to Pakistan,' Minister of State for External Affairs Shashi Tharoor told reporters outside parliament.
The Pakistan government presented a list of 25 banned organisations in the National Assembly Wednesday, which included JuD, Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) that are suspected to be involved in many terror attacks in India, including the Nov 26 attacks in Mumbai.
'We need to see what the follow-up action is,' Tharoor said.
Pakistan should also act on its commitment to dismantle terror infrastructure on its soil, he said.
Foreign Secretary Nirupama Rao added that the government has sought more information from the Indian High Commission in Islamabad on the issue.
Pakistan banned the JuD after the UN Security Council declared it a front for the outlawed LeT in December last year. The LeT and JeM were banned by the country in 2002.
