ISLAMABAD: A top-level national security conference summoned by Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani will be held tomorrow (Tuesday) to review the situation arising out of the attacks in the Indian commercial city of Mumbai, reported ARY OneWorld.

PM Gilani telephoned many political leaders on Sunday and invited them to attend the conference to discuss the strategy to deal with the situation, a spokesman for the prime minister said.

PM had canceled his trip to Hong Kong to concentrate on addressing growing tensions with India after the Mumbai terror attacks.

PM and President Asif Ali Zardari were holding continuous consultations with military and political leaders and also talked to various heads of states and governments on phone Sunday.

The Mumbai attacks have heightened tension between the two neighboring countries as several Indian leaders have claimed that elements in Pakistan are behind the attacks.

Islamabad has denied any role and asked India to provide evidence about the involvement of elements in Pakistan to take action against them.
