No business as usual with Pakistan: Indian PM
By AFP Published: January 15, 2013
NEW DELHI: Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh warned Tuesday that there cannot be business as usual with neighbouring Pakistan after last weeks deadly flare-up along the border in disputed Kashmir.
It cannot be business as usual with Pakistan, he told reporters on the sidelines of an army function. What has happened is unacceptable, he added in reference to the killing of two Indian soldiers, one of whom was beheaded.
Tensions between India and Pakistan were heightened last week by a series of cross-border exchanges in disputed Kashmir in which four soldiers were killed. India says that one of its soldiers was beheaded.
Firing and small skirmishes are common along the 740km LoC despite a ceasefire that was agreed in 2003. The Indian army says eight of its soldiers were killed in 2012, in 75 incidents of ceasefire violations.
