Tensions running high between Pakistan and India

Today, the people of Mumbai are making the effort to get their lives back to something approaching normality after the traumatizing events of last week. The clean-up operations at the targets hit by teams of gunmen are well underway. So, too, is the apportioning of blame.
Tensions are running high between India and Pakistan - with many Indians believing that Pakistan played some part in the attacks. The Indian military is reported to have been put on a "war footing". Pakistan has responded by saying any escalation would require it to re-deploy forces from the fight against terrorism in Afghanistan. The message from Islamabad seems to be - "if you pin this on us, we won't be able to help you with the Taliban and Al Qaida".

India: The fallout continues

Adam Mynott talks to John Hockenberry about the fallout from the Mumbai attacks. Mynott reports from the largest railway station in Mumbai, the scene at the greatest death toll on Wednesday, where gunmen killed 50 people on platform 13. But today, Mynott says the people are getting back to work.
The repercussions globally from the Mumbai attacks have continued, but things are most critical in India. The most significant news is the fallout in the Indian government and reports that one of the gunman has been captured by Indian authorities and has been interrogated. The gunman is badly injured and in the hospital but has been giving some information. As to how accurate the information is, it's hard to establish. The gunman has lead authorities to believe that the attack was formulated in Pakistan, the attackers came ashore by boat and proceded to mount their attacks.
In the Indian government, there is evidence coming through that intelligence about this possible attack was circulating but was not acted upon. As a result of that, the National Home Minister has resigned and the Chief State Minister has offered his resignation and his deputy has resigned. This is probably an indication that there will be a restructuring of how India views it's security. This is going to be a major factor in the elections. The opposition are already making some accusations about the government not being prepared for this tragedy.

Sadanand Dhume speaks with John Hockenberry about how India is coming to grip with the attacks.
Dhume thinks the regional repercussions will be the story as we look ahead for the rest of the week, as we find out what kind of proof, if any, India has of Pakistani involvement and what kind of Involvement that is. Depending on what is found out, the fear is that we could be facing a situation in South Asia where you have a very weak government in Pakistan and a teetering government in India amid a passionate exchange of charges and counter charges.
