NEW DELHI — India's prime minister said Monday there was "credible information" that terrorist groups based in neighboring Pakistan were planning new attacks in the country.

After last year's attacks in Mumbai that killed 166 people, India put additional security measures in place but "continued vigilance" was needed, Manmohan Singh said at an internal security meeting in the Indian capital.

"There is credible information of ongoing plans of terrorist groups in Pakistan to carry out fresh attacks," the premier said, giving no other details.

There was no immediate comment from Pakistani officials.

Hindu-majority India and mostly Muslim Pakistan have been adversaries since the two nations were born in the bloody partition of the South Asian subcontinent at independence from Britain in 1947.
