Adviser to Prime Minister on Foreign Affairs Sartaj Aziz will meet India’s External Affairs Minister Salman Khurshid on the margins of the Asia-Europe Meeting, says External Affairs Ministry spokesperson. The Asia-Europe meeting is scheduled to take place on Nov 11-12.
India would reiterate its demand for peace on the Line of Control and the international border for moving ahead with the dialogue process, Times of India quoted Akbaruddin as telling reporters on Saturday.
He said the two officials would “take up the outcome of the last meeting – that for India and Pakistan to engage it is important, as a precondition that there should be peace and tranquillity on the Line of Control.”
Aziz has also sought a meeting with the prime minister during the visit, the spokesperson said.
Aziz also wishes to meet some leaders of the All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC) in Delhi. Sources in the Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) told IANS in Srinagar that JKLF chief Muhammad Yasin Malik has received an invitation to meet Aziz when the latter arrives in New Delhi on Nov 10.

@Voice of Pakistan: Stop “Drowning Pakistan Every year” by Opening flood gates of all dams at once ! Stop Diverting Pakistani rivers Rivers !
Wait wait wait,are u by chance Zaid Hamid because I thought he was the only guy who thought India was responsible for your flooding...So we havemore than one idiot in Pakistan.....
Besides your statements are self contradictory...Had we diverted the water as u claim,you would not have flooding..So u can choose only one of the accusation you made....
Regarding others,even a third person who is not concerned with India would find it silly...We find it LMFAO
@Voice of Pakistan: lol, how you talk about getting into nuclear war with us, when your country can't survive without 1.6 billion money from US and Chinese spare parts??.....you cant save your country from US and you are thinking about kashmir?? You people are utter failure in Kashmir, so stop threatening us and look out for yourselves....
@Voice of Pakistan: Kashmir was/is/will remain Part of India. Period.
Indians have some demands too 1. Stop sending terrorist in India.This has been going for decades now and has just brought more destruction to Pakistan than to India. 2. Don't just claim, send the proof of Indian involvement as well. India has provided dossier after dossier and proof after proof of Pakistan involvement but Pakistan has never shared a single proof of Indian involvement accept your media claims. Musharraf , the former head of Pakistan, accepted that Pakistan was/is involved in sponsoring terrorism in India. 3. Don't blame natural calamities on India. If you can't build a dam, that is your problem not India's. 4. I think you need to watch your own TV shows on this Indus water treaty and you may realize that India has never violated the treaty despite the wars. Just because Pakistan population has increased while water resources remained at same level , does not mean India is causing the issue.
@Voice of Pakistan: u r welcome to have ur imaginations. If u have decided on starting the war, whats in the reason. Reasons can be any. Must take care of the fact that every issue has a life beyond which it dies; for example beheading of 2 Indian soldiers, 26/11, torture of Sourabh Kalia, Bombay blasts in the 90s, infiltrating kashmir with ur proxies, ethnic cleansing of Pandits from the valley etc etc etc. Keep manufacturing issues for war like u r doing lest u r short of a compelling one when u opportune time to start war comes.
How long India will occupy the Jammu & Kashmir with million troops ???
What People of Pakistan wan't from India:
People of Pakistan, Law makers, Army, ISI & elected GOVT don't want the land & mountains of Indian illegally occupied "Jammu & Kashmir" but when your forces brutally kill Muslims in Kashmir rape them Such type of incidents hurts the Millions of Kashmiri's in Pakistan.
9Stop funding terrorism in Pakistan Stop Proxy war on Afghan border (By sending Mercenaries/ Suicide Bombers to kill Innocent people in Pakistan )
Stop "Drowning Pakistan Every year" by Opening flood gates of all dams at once ! Stop Diverting Pakistani rivers Rivers ! "upcoming India-PAKISTAN war will not on Kashmir but on Water ! and Violations of Indus water treaty will lead towards full scale war or a Possible nuclear war "
Aziz also wishes to meet some leaders of the All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC) in Delhi. Sources in the Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) ' +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Any meeting of the Pakistani in India with Kashmiri separatists should result in the immediatre arrest of all concerened on treason charges.
