Home Ministry denies meeting with PAK counterpart in SAARC

New Delhi, Sep 1 (IBNS): The Home Ministry on Monday denied media reports that Rajnath Singh will meet his Pakistani counterpart on the sidelines of a South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) conference scheduled later this month in Nepal, reports said.

“The Home Ministry is of the firm opinion that terror and talks cannot go together. Unless Pakistan stops terrorism and violence no dialogue is possible,” the home ministry tweeted on Monday morning. It also dismissed the news reports dubbing them as “incorrect and fabricated.”

A number of ceasefire violations took place along the International Border of Jammu by Pakistani troops since Narendra Modi-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government took over in May this year.

The Union Home Minister on Sunday said that India's security forces had been directed to give a “befitting” reply to the ceasefire violations by Pakistan and to not "keep showing the white flag" if they continue with firing.
