External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee refused to speak further on National Security Adviser M K Narayanan's claim that Pakistan had reverted on India's dossier on Mumbai attacks, saying he had already "clarified" his position on the issue.
     
"The position has been clarified by me on Wednesday," Mukherjee told media-persons tersely when asked to comment on Narayanan's statement.
     
Mukherjee maintained that India has not received any response from Pakistan
on the dossier on Mumbai attacks.
     
Narayanan, in a TV interview, had claimed on Saturday that Pakistan had reverted to India on the Mumbai attacks
dossier, asking questions to which replies are being provided.
     
Mukherjee later virtually snubbed the NSA by saying, "That he (Narayanan) has said in his own way. The fact of the
matter is that after they (Pakistan) received material from us, we have not received any official communication about the
progress of investigation conducted by them."
