Pakistan’s new conditions for NSA-talks rejected by India

New Delhi:-India has sent to Pakistan that it remains committed to talks however the “new unilateral” conditions obligatory by it cannot be the idea for “going forward.” India feels that Pakistan was ne ' er serious concerning the talks between their National Security Advisers (NSA) as still the end result of the city Summit; there has been a big increase in barrage fire by Pakistani troops targeting civilian population in Jammu and Kashmir and an increase in infiltration besides two major terror attacks. The assessment in New Delhi is that Pakistan’s position on NSA-level talks is in contradiction to what was in agreement to between Prime Ministers Narendra Modi and Nawaz Sharif in UFa on 10 July as national capital tried to form a “distorted interpretation” of the understanding. India has sent to Pakistan that its “unilateral imposition of latest conditionalities and distorted interpretation” of what was in agreement between the 2 Prime Ministers wasn ' t acceptable. New Delhi feels that Islamabad has gone back on the Ufa agreement as “some forces” therein country didn ' t need the talks to travel forward. The government here isn ' t shocked by Pakistan’s position on talks between the two prime security advisers, going by its action following the end result in city. It’s understood that there was no chance of Pakistan NSA Sartaj Aziz returning here for the talks along with his Indian counterpart Ajit Doval. India had created it clear to Pakistan that a gathering between the separatists and Sartaj Aziz was unacceptable. Pakistan reacted powerfully to insist that it ' d not depart from the “established past practice” of interacting with separatist Hurriyat leaders, rejecting India’s recommendation to not act with their meeting with Aziz. India hit back accusatory Pakistan of making an attempt to evade its commitment to interact in a very substantive discussion on act of terrorism as had been in agreement between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Pakistani counterpart Nawaz Sharif in Ufa. It said that Islamabad’s insistence on meeting Hurriyat leaders as a pre-condition was a whole departure from the city understanding. Moreover, India has always held the position that there are only two, not three, stakeholders in the bilateral relationship. Unilateral imposition of latest conditions and “distortion of the in agreement agenda cannot be the idea for going forward,” External Affairs advocator Vikas Swarup said.
