Facing the scourge of terrorism, India and Britain must step up the quality and momentum of exchanges and information sharing on a real time basis, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has said.  In a foreword to a book, 'Reconnecting Britain and India', launched here, Dr Manmohan Singh said, "We are committed to transform our bilateral relations into an enhanced strategic partnership. While we have been co-operating to deal with the terrorist challenge, we could further step up the quality and momentum of exchanges and information sharing on a real time basis," he said.

British Prime Minister David Cameron responded to Manmohan Singh's concern by writing in his foreward to the book: "Of course, one of the biggest threats both our countries face at the moment is terrorism, carried out by extremists who are adept at crossing borders and communicating globally. This calls on our governments to act together to protect our citizens."

The book is edited by the British MP, Jo Johnson and Rajiv Kumar, Secretary-General of FICCI.
