Advani refuses to support resumption of India, Pakistan peace dialogue
NEW DELHI: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Lal Krishna Advani on Saturday turned down the request of a group of Pakistani politicians and diplomats to support the resumption of peace talks between Pakistan and India. The group consisting of former chief of army staff General (r) Jahangir Karamat, PPP leader Sherry Rehman and others met Advani to seek his support for the resumption of dialogue between the two countries but the BJP leader categorically told the group that he could not support the holding of peace talks until Pakistan stopped sponsoring terrorism and cross-border infiltration in Indian-held Kashmir (IHK). iftikhar gilani
