New Delhi, Dec 22 (ANI): Reacting to the comments made by Pakistan’s High Commissioner in India, Shahid Malik, that India is not fulfilling its commitments to de-link the composite talks from action on terrorism, Minster of State for External Affairs Shashi Tharoor on Tuesday said the onus is on Pakistan to make the ground for a suitable dialogue.
In an exclusive interview to a news channel on Sunday (December 20), Shahid Malik referring to the meeting between Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and his Pakistani counterpart Yousuf Raza Gilani in Sharm-el-Sheikh said, “Something that we agreed on, has not been acted upon.”
Malik said Pakistani investigators were looking for full proof evidence to take action against all those involved in the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks, and defended the speed with which Pakistan was dealing with the case. (ANI)
