Indian-Americans seek Government action to stop terrorism

Washington, Nov 29 (UNI) A coalition of several organisations of Indian-Americans has expressed alarm at the reported involvement of foreign groups in Mumbai terrorist attacks and urged the government of India to identify these groups.

In a joint statement, they wanted the government to reassure the nation that ''such threats are being dealt with in an effective manner.'' They requested Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to make the much-needed changes in the senior ranks of the government and the security apparatus ''to ensure that the citizens and institutions of India are fully protected from acts of terrorism.''
