Even before India has forwarded evidence regarding its allegation of Pakistan's involvement in Mumbai train blasts, Islamabad has said many separatist organisations active within India could be behind them.

"Many separatist organisations were active within the Indian states and that would be their act and we have nothing to do with such cases," Interior Minister Aftab Ahmed Khan Sherpao was quoted by state-run APP news agency as saying at Wah Cantonment on Wednesday.

Claiming that Pakistan was a peaceful country and never thought about such acts, Sherpao said that the Indian government has levelled baseless allegations against it.

India has said it would provide credible evidence to Pakistan with regard to the July Mumbai blasts.
