Ready to assist India in the war on terror, says U.S.

Washington, Sep 15 (PTI) The United States has said it is
ready to assist India in the war on terror after serial blasts
rocked New Delhi, underscoring that such macabre acts only
united those committed to peaceful and democratic society.

"We are ready to assist the Indian government in its
ongoing fight to eliminate the scourge of terrorism," State
Department spokesman Sean McCormack has said in a statement.

He said the tragedy serves as a reminder that "terrorism
did not deter, but unites those committed to peaceful and
political means as the guarantor of a free, democratic and
prosperous society".

The spokesman condemned the terrorist attacks on
September 13 in New Delhi and extended sympathy to the
families of those killed and injured in the blasts. PTI
