India slams Pak as Sartaj Aziz says talks with India impossible without Kashmir being on agenda

New Delhi, July 14 (ANI): Indian experts slammed Pakistan after Pakistan’s Advisor on National Security and Foreign Affairs, Sartaj Aziz said that the talks with India was impossible without Kashmir being on the agenda. Aziz’s comments came days after Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi accepted an invitation from his Pakistani counterpart, Nawaz Sharif, to visit the neighbouring nation during their first bilateral talks in over a year. Sharif and Modi met for nearly one hour on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit in Ufa, Russia, last week. Since Sharif visited India in May last year to attend Modi’s swearing-in, the two leaders have not met barring an “informal” chat during the SAARC summit in November last year. Defence expert, Alok Bansal, said that Aziz’s statement was an attempt to counter the criticism that the Pakistani leadership invited post extending an invitation to Modi. Senior lawyer, KTS Tulsi, said that such statements exposed Pakistan’s double standards. Meanwhile, Congress party leader, Anand Sharma, said that the party will seek an explanation from the prime minister in Parliament.
