NEW DELHI: Amid the continuing unrest in Kashmir, India today asked Pakistan to stop cross border terror activities and asserted it will take all necessary steps to safeguard national security and territorial integrity.
The Government told Parliament that terrorism emanating from territories under Pakistan's control remained India's “core concern” and that the Pathankot attack and strikes in various places in Kashmir have highlighted the continued threat of cross border terrorism and infiltration.
“In response to Pakistan's recent statements in support of known terrorists killed in India, Government has asked Pakistan to stop all terrorism and anti-India activities in Pakistan or territories under its control,” Minister of State for External Affairs V K Singh, said replying to a question in Lok Sabha.
He said Pakistan has been told that it cannot be in denial on the impact of terrorism on the bilateral ties, and it must expeditiously bring to justice all those guilty of Mumbai terror attack as well as of the Pathankot strike.
