New Delhi:

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Wednesday said his Pakistani counterpart Yousuf Raza Gilani had not handed over any dossier to him on Balochistan during their meeting in Egypt earlier this month.

Intervening in a discussion in the Lok Sabha on his recent visit to foreign countries, Singh said, "I categorically say no such dossier was given to me".

Singh met Gilani in Sharm-el Sheikh on the sidelines of the NAM summit.

Initiating the debate, BJP leader Yashwant Sinha had accused the Prime Minister of compromising India's foreign policy with the mention of Balochistan and warned that New Delhi will face pressure from the international community on the issue in future.
