No reason to distrust Pak

India has no reason to distrust Pakistan's assurance that it will take effective action on inputs given about the perpetrators of the Pathankot terror attack, Indian Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh said yesterday.

"Pakistan government has said it will take effective action. I think we should wait," Singh told reporters on the sidelines of a function here.

"There is no reason to distrust (avishvaas) them (Pakistan) so early," he said.

After the attack, India had said it has provided to Pakistan actionable intelligence to act upon the perpetrators of the terrorist act.

Reports from Pakistan on Monday said law enforcement agencies have picked up "some suspects" connected to Pathankot airbase attack.

Meanwhile, the US Congress has "stalled" a planned sale of eight new F-16 fighter jets to Pakistan, Pakistani newspaper Dawn reported yesterday quoting congressional and diplomatic sources.

Concerned over the end use of the F-16 fighter jets by Pakistan, US lawmakers have used clarification and information notices to delay the sale of the combat aircraft.
