The BJP wants the government to call off talks with Pakistan. Party spokesperson Ravi Shankar Prasad said, "Why should India talk under pressure. Pakistan has no desire to tackle terrorism."
With so much controversy surrounding the India, Pakistan meeting of the two Foreign Ministers, SM Krishna and Shah Mahmood Qureshi, where does the peace process head? NDTV debates the issue.
Party spokesperson Jayanti Natrajan says Pak should act against 26/11 perpetrators. She said that Qureshi accepted that Pak would follow Headley's leads given by India. Natrajan said that talk should continue.
Former Foreign Minister and senior BJP leader Yashwant Sinha has attacked the government for talking to Pakistan. He termed the talks as counter-productive.
The Congress has expressed disappointment at the tone and tenor of Pakistan Foreign Minister SM Qureshi but the BJP has accused the government of continuing to conduct and seek peace talks with Pakistan at any cost.
On Friday, the war of words continued between India and Pakistan. The spat was obvious first at the joint press briefing held by the Foreign Ministers of both countries on Thursday night after their talks ended.
Talks between India and Pakistan's foreign ministers that lasted a marathon six hours clearly appear to have not gone as well as expected. Both ministers had a sharp exchange of views on a series of issues during a press conference in Islamabad.
Congress spokesperson Abhishek Manu Singhvi has rejected as ridiculous the Pak Foreign Minister making a statement on GK Pillai in response to a question on Hafiz Saeed.
