India sees no role for any third party in talks with Pakistan

NEW DELHI: India is very clear that no third party has any role in India-Pakistan parleys despite Pakistan’s stand that it would continue to speak to Kashmiri separatist leaders whom they term as “voice of Kashmiris”, highly placed government sources said on Monday.

“What we have agreed with Pakistan during external affairs minister’s visit to Islamabad is bilateral comprehensive dialogue. So, it is a bilateral thing and no third party has any role to play in discussions between India and Pakistan,” the sources said.
