The US has asked the Pakistan government to use its influence with terrorist groups to completely stop attacks on India, US under secretary of state Nicholas Burns said today.

"We obviously wish to see no more terrorism emanating from Kashmiri militants," Burns said here.  

"We have told the Pakistani government that we would hope that the Pakistani government uses influence with these terrorist groups to curb and stop altogether any attacks on India," he said.

On the evidence India has shared with the US regarding Pakistan's involvement in the July 11 train bombings in Mumbai, Burns said the US state department is yet to study this in detail.
