The Center embarrassed after name in list given to Pakistan actually present in Mumbai, slipup is serious

From time to time, the Center does various slipups in terms of law and order, or statements which seem to portray that proper research has not gone into its investigations and some of the documentation is shoddy. In the past, some of the material supplied to Pakistan as proof of its complicity in terror attacks in India have had problems. The situation between Pakistan and India is extremely tense, and any such slip-ups can cause Pakistan to immediately react and point out problems, and use these problems to justify concerns about the accuracy of the rest of the documentation. It is absolutely necessary that such documentation, such dossiers (which do go through a fair amount of international appraisal as well) be absolutely accurate and can stand any scrutiny.
In the latest such slipup, the Government sent a list to Pakistan that contained 50 most wanted criminals that are present in Pakistan, and whom India wants Pakistan to send back to India. This list contains people who top the criminal and terrorist list such as Dawood Ibrahim, his henchmen, Hafeez Mohammad Saeed (the head of the Lashkar), Syed Sallahuddin, and many others. India has the stipulation that these people are all present in Pakistan based on various information collected by Indian agencies and even by international agencies such as Interpol and by various media. One expects that such a list would be the basis for a discussion, where the Indian Government will push for Pakistan to send these people back if it is serious about combating terrorism and also if it wants to convince India that it is not acting against India.
