| 26/11 not an important issue for Congress-controlled Delhi | | Islamabad Meet | | Neha
JAMMU, Sept 10: The Congress-controlled New Delhi has for all practical purposes forgotten the 26/11 deadly terror attacks in the financial capital of India, Mumbai, which had resulted in the gruesome killing of 166 innocent persons, including women and children. It was a direct attack on India. New Delhi does make statement on those terror attacks on occasions and demand action against the perpetrators, but it is not committed to forcing Islamabad to act against them. When Indian Foreign Minister SM Krishna left New Delhi for Islamabad on September 7, he did make a statement that New Delhi could not ignore what happened in Mumbai and assured the nation that he would see to it that Islamabad addressed the Indian concerns. This was a hollow statement.
Just look at the 6-page joint statement issued by Krishna and his Pakistani counterpart Hina Rabbani Khar and see for yourself that New Delhi is interested more in placating Islamabad than in any action against the perpetrators of the terror attacks. Action against them is not on the New Delhi's priority list. There is a reference to these attacks and it is number 10 in the New Delhi priority list. It reads like this: "The Ministers noted the commitment given by Pakistan during the Interior/Home Secretary talks in May 2012 to bring all the perpetrators of the Mumbai terror attacks to justice expeditiously in accordance with due process of law". That's all. This was what Islamabad had been saying since 2008.
That Pakistan will not yield had become more than clear on September 6, when Khar told New Delhi through media that it should forget the Mumbai terror attacks and move forward. She had told New Delhi that the latter's insistence on action against the perpetrators will jeopardize the dialogue process between the two countries and it will not be in the interest of the two countries. She held her ground firmly during her talks with Krishna and only told him what she and others in Pakistan had been telling India: Give us more evidence; the evidence provided by India was no more than pieces of literature which could not stand any judicial scrutiny in Pakistan.
All this only serves to demonstrate that the Congress-controlled New Delhi is only fooling the nation by saying that it is committed to forcing Islamabad to take credible action against those who masterminded and executed the Mumbai terror attacks. It's not committed at all. |
