Washington (PTI): A top Bush administration official has condemned the terror attack in Jaipur and said that Washington needs to work with New Delhi to help prevent such type of attacks in the future.

"...I'd like to begin by expressing a sentiment that I think you share... and that's absolute condemnation of the terrorist attacks in Jaipur. It's a sad reminder that even the ... the glowing light in the region, a more stable country that's developing, is still subject to these horrible types of attacks, and we need to work with the people of India as we express our sympathy...," Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asia Richard Boucher said.

"...there's no justification for the murders of innocent people in that way, and we need to work with the Indians to try to help them prevent such attacks in the future," he added.
