Pakistan ‘covertly backing terrorism across border’, says Antony
NEW DELHI: Indian Defence Minister AK Antony on Tuesday alleged that Pakistan was continuing to provide covert support to the perpetrators of cross-border terrorism, and hoped for a “more meaningful engagement with the newly elected government in Islamabad”.
Speaking at the opening ceremony of a five-day army commanders’ bi-annual conference, he hoped that Islamabad would take steps to “effectively” curb cross-border terrorism, adding that on its part Indian forces would have to be vigilant on all fronts, PTI reported. The conference focuses on terrorism, especially the recent attempts to rake up an upsurge in Jammu and Kashmir.
Regarding China, the minister said there was “no room for complacency” on the Sino-Indian Border, adding that India would abide by the bilateral confidence-building measures with China.
“We have to constantly upgrade our military and economic capabilities,” he said. Commenting on Nepal, Antony said the “winds of political change” were sweeping the Himalayan country. Describing the changes taking place in Nepal as a “defining moment” for the country, he said India was committed to helping Kathmandu to ensure an orderly and constitutional transition to multi-party democracy.
