India on Monday cancelled talks with Pakistan scheduled for next week, over its envoy's engagement with Kashmiri separatists, saying Islamabad's interference in its internal affairs is "unacceptable". The day after, a separatist leader has said he will go ahead with his meeting with Pakistan High Commissioner Abdul Basit. Hurriyat leader Mirwaiz Umar Farooq has called New Delhi's decision a "knee-jerk reaction" and said he will keep his appointment with the Pakistani envoy today.
