NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Gunmen who stormed a police station and killed seven people in India's Punjab came from Pakistan, the Indian government said on Thursday, but it gave no indication that a plan for bilateral high-level security talks have been jeopardized by the attack.

Citing a preliminary analysis of data from GPS tracking devices carried by the gunmen, Home Minister Rajnath Singh told parliament the three men crossed over via a river that criss-crosses between Pakistan and India.
