"We are not planning any military action, but at the same time unless Pakistan takes actions against those terrorists who are operating from their soil against India and also against all those who are behind the Mumbai terrorist attack, things will not be normal," Defence Minister A K Antony said.

'India will have to fight in its own way'

He was talking to media persons on occasion of 'Vijay Diwas' marking the 37th anniversary of India's military victory over Pakistan in the Bangladesh liberation war.

On the issue of troop deployment along the Indo-Pak border, Antony said the situation there was 'normal' and armed forces were 'always ready'.

'Al Qaeda is a corporate entity'

Refusing to divulge India's course of action in the present scenario, Antony demanded sincere action by Pakistan against the terrorists.

The chiefs of Navy, Army and Air Force -- Admiral Sureesh Mehta, General Deepak Kapoor and Air Chief Marshal Fali Homi Major -- also attended the Vijay Diwas function.
