"The US is very supportive of all efforts in the fight against terrorism. At the same time, we are not going to in any way pressurise to restart (Indo-Pak) dialogue as it is for these two sovereign governments to decide," she told reporters here.
On the resumption of dialogue between India and Pakistan, she said "this is an issue to be addressed and it is for India to decide what is best for its people."
"We have made it clear that US respects India's decision," she said.
The US Secretary of State said her government is committed to the fight against terrorism.
"We expect everyone with whom we have relations to take strong action to prevent terrorism from taking roots on their soil," she said, without naming Pakistan.
Clinton said Pakistan was, however, showing greater commitment to fight terrorism in the last six months.
To a query on Pakistan giving support to organisations like LeT and JUD, she spoke in favour of dismantling all terror organisations including these two outfits.
"Based on what we have seen in the last few months, there has been action not just from the government level but also from the society to fight terror (in Pakistan)," she said.
However, she said "it is too early to tell the outcome coming from Pakistan."
Voicing the US administration's commitment to boosting bilateral ties, Clinton said during her meeting with Indian officials she would strive to deepen the relations in the areas of economy, climate change and terrorism.
To a query on India and China contributing to carbon emissions, she said "there is no inherent contradiction between poverty eradication and moving towards a carbon emission-free regime."
"What US wanted was that countries like India and China do not commit same mistakes like US and other developed countries," she said.
