“Shows continued Pak attachment to terrorism”, foreign ministry spokesperson Vikas Swarup tweeted.

India also strongly rejected Sharifs call for a serious and sustained bilateral dialogue without any conditions, saying that Pakistan, which seems to be run by a war machine rather than a government, wants talks with a gun in its hand. “But India has posed unacceptable preconditions to engage in a dialogue”, he said.
India has made it clear that the onus of dealing with terrorist groups lies with Pakistan, if it wants to become a responsible member of the comity of nations.
“No one and I repeat, no other country, at United Nations has spoken on the subject Nawaz Sharif devoted 80% of his time to+”, Swarup said. “We have always been ready for a dialogue, but we will not succumb to blackmail tactics (from) the government in Islamabad that seems eager to use terrorists and terrorism”.
India has blamed Pakistan for engineering and fuelling the unrest. Responding to this, Gambhir told the assembly: “Even today we have heard support by the prime minister of Pakistan for a self-acknowledged commander of a known terrorist organisation Hizbul Mujahideen”. Singhvi called Pakistan the biggest exporter of terrorism in the world.
About India’s growing defence budget, the PM said, “We can not ignore our neighbour’s India unprecedented arms buildup”. Wani was a self-declared commander of the Hizbul Mujahideen.
He had urged the Indian Prime Minister to walk on the path of bravery along with the path of non-violence.
Causing another major embarrassment for Pakistan, the US Secretary of State John Kerry has asked the alleged sponsors of the Uri terror attack to take action against the perpetrators and snubbed its rant for Kashmir, giving India the much needed support for isolating Pakistan internationally.
She also referred to the latest attacks on the Uri army base, at India-administered Kashmir’s border with Pakistan. This is a big setback for Nawaz Sharif, who is pushing hard, so the world can keep an eye on J&K.

“I demand an independent inquiry into the extrajudicial killings and a United Nations fact finding mission to investigate the brutalities perpetrated by the Indian occupying forces”, he said.
