PAK-INDIA 2 LST

Basit said the ball is in India's court for ensuring
progress in resolving outstanding issues. Pakistan is not
sparing efforts to bring the perpetrators of the Mumbai
attacks to book, he added.
The resolution of the Kashmir issue in line with UN
resolutions will usher in peace in the region and help improve
relations between India and Pakistan, he said.
The meeting between the premiers of the two countries
in Sharm el-Sheikh reflected good progress but India did not
take the peace process forward, he contended.
Replying to a question on India’s alleged involvement
in fomenting unrest in Balochistan and Waziristan, Basit said
Pakistan will present evidence in the regard at the
appropriate forum and at the appropriate time.
Responding to another query about Indian interference
in Pakistan through Afghanistan, he said Islamabad had raised
its concerns several times with Kabul and countries that are
part of the coalition forces in Afghanistan.
India has already dismissed Pakistan’s claims that it
is behind the unrest in Balochistan and the tribal areas
bordering Afghanistan. PTI
