MOSCOW, November 30 (RIA Novosti) - Russia and India will step up their anti-terrorist cooperation in the wake of militant attacks on India's financial capital that killed nearly 200 people, the Kremlin press office said on Sunday.

Russian President Dmitry Medvedev held a telephone conversation on Sunday with Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, the Kremlin press office said.

"Both sides expressed their intention to intensify anti-terrorist interaction. These issues will be discussed during the forthcoming visit by the Russian president to India and within the framework of the Russian-Indian working group for combating international terrorism," the Kremlin press office said.

Terrorists swept through Mumbai on Wednesday night, armed with submachine guns and grenades attacking hotels, the railway station, a cinema, and a hospital.

The three-day rampage killed 174 people, including more than 20 foreigners.
