Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif said on Saturday his four-point peace roadmap is the only way forward.

“There is no other solution, we have given a proposal for peace in the region,” PM Nawaz said while addressing the media in London.

Responding to a question regarding India rebuffing his peace roadmap with a ‘one-point’ peace proposal of its own, the premier said, “India will have to follow the peace plan sooner or later and the sooner they do the better it will be.”

“India will not gain anything by pointing fingers at Pakistan,” he added. "Animosity has only impeded the development process."

Further, the premier said the proxy war against Pakistan from across the border should come to an end.

Referring to three dossiers handed over to the UN secretary general on Friday containing evidence of India’s involvement in fomenting terrorism and instability in their country, PM Nawaz said, “All evidence regarding the involvement of India’s premier spy agency, RAW, in terrorist activities in Pakistan have been submitted.”

Underscoring the urgency of resolving the decades-old dispute over the Himalayan state of Kashmir, PM Nawaz on Wednesday proposed to India a four-point peace initiative centred around the demilitarization of Kashmir.

Addressing the world leaders at the 70th anniversary session of the 193-member UN General Assembly, the prime minister proposed Pakistan and India formalise and respect the 2003 understanding for a complete ceasefire on the Line of Control (LoC) in Kashmir to be monitored by an expanded UN Military Observers Group in India and Pakistan (UNMOGIP).

However, responding to his peace plan India proposed its own and called on Pakistan to ‘give up support for terrorism’.

“Yesterday the prime minister of Pakistan proposed a four-point peace initiative. We don’t need four points, we need just one – give up terrorism and let us sit down and talk,” India’s Foreign Minister Sushma Swaraj said in her speech before the UN General Assembly.

hello | 9 years ago | Reply There is a phrase commonly used in the Corporate world. Asserting something multiple times doesn't make it true, let alone possible. Whether its 4 points or 1 point, there is no motivation or any one of the countries to relent and do what the other wants. Not going to happen. No matter how much chest-thumping we do here, its obvious that we will be in the same place 50 years from now.

TQ | 9 years ago | Reply @Zak, Yes are very correct. India will be a big looser as Pakistan has nothing to lose. How much more damage you can inflict on a dying person

ZAK | 9 years ago | Reply In case of another war on Kashmir India will be a big loser.

mahakaalchakra | 9 years ago | Reply India says to Pakistan,"GIVE UP TERRORISM" Please pay attention to the exact words.

Pakistani | 9 years ago | Reply Guess what! Secular India doesn't even have comments section on their tribune website. Now tell me is secular and who ardent. You can tell about the nation by looking at its mass murderer PM.

Last Word | 9 years ago | Reply Pakistan has committed diplomatic impropriety handing over the dossier directly to UN without sharing it with India as the latter had asked for the same several times. What can UN do with allegations against India as it has no power to investigate ? The counter-allegations is merely to justify proxy war against India which Pakistan wants to continue with impunity. No wonder, India has hardened its stand dismissing four point proposals by Nawaz Sharif with a curt reply to de-terrorise Pakistan first, before holding any talks with its neighbour.

Rex Minor | 9 years ago | Reply The guy has no role to play as a peace man in the region, while his army buddy is turning the entire civilian territory into a military Estate. Mr Modi might give the impression of a simple chaiwala, but has the instinct to smell foul. Besides Pakistan Government should try to bring their own house in order without interfearance into the neighbours affairs. For the border between the two, both should withdraw from the LoC and create a no mans land instead, keeping apart theiir masquereding bods. Rex Minor

whatever | 9 years ago | Reply Pakistan PM is proposing peace and his general is beating war drums. First tame your general else another kargil debacle awaits you.

Plal | 9 years ago | Reply Both India and Pakistan are alleging each other of terrorism so it is logical that they should sit down exchange dossiers and take action, which they have agreed in Ulfa.

Malatesh | 9 years ago | Reply In other words he is telling that one point formula proposed by India is not acceptable.. What does this mean? Pakistan will continue to......

Vectra | 9 years ago | Reply Thanks but no thanks.you keep your 4 points and we keep our one point.

Menon | 9 years ago | Reply @Ali: You are hallucinating with your PM. India does to have to do anything in response someone howling at the moon. You Pakistani’s give lot of weight your delusional leaders say in the UNGA every year. Pakistan has done this for 70 years, has anyone listened to your leaders howling at the UN. NO, why? Pakistan always punches way above its weight and gets embarrassed. Show one single thing that has happened in response to these delusional ideas? By the way, when is Pakistan vacating PoK so India can the territory you illegally ceded to China? In the meantime, Pakistan has no credibility in the world.

mk | 9 years ago | Reply @Ali: Beggars cant be choosers, Pakistan has to accept and impliment the 1 point India curtly ordered Pakistan. Pakistan has dug itself between four walls that has created itself.

Jai | 9 years ago | Reply I think for a smaller nation like Pakistan compared to India,it should come down few steps and create an environment which will help resolve the issue and progress with economy.No citizen of both countries should repent that why we born in these countries.

Raj | 9 years ago | Reply I fail to understand why is that pakistan always wants its statemnts only to be considered as true. There is a double game in this, while Sharif says there is no point in pointing fingers at Pakistan for terrorism and at the same time he is pointing fingers at India for terrorism. IS this not a hypocricy? No resepctful nation will accept paksitan's dialogue offer when on the one hand pakistan is sending terrorists to india and on the other hand, expects peace talks. How can this happen?

Arif | 9 years ago | Reply @Prakash: that's ok, no one gives away occupied land that easy. History tells us that no one can oppress people for long time, one day you will have to accept their demand

Arif | 9 years ago | Reply @Ajay: Yes, you will see, 68 years can turn into 168 years if India dies not stop playing games. But you can't change Kashmir people mind. After 68 years they still demand freedom.

Arif | 9 years ago | Reply @Ajay: Well talk about yourself, you voted a territory to become a PM of your country. Hypocrite!

Ajay | 9 years ago | Reply @Ali: This "sooner" is already 68 years old.

Sarwar | 9 years ago | Reply The four points should be lucidly given point by point.

Prakash | 9 years ago | Reply Pakistan's attempts to internationalise the Kashmir issue have only resulted in hardening of stance by India. A few more rubs by Pakistan and India will step up their one-point agenda to 'Vacate POK'. India then mightn't even mind the issue getting internationalised since most countries will side with India.

Ajay | 9 years ago | Reply So what Nawaz Sharif is saying that we will not give up and one day India will have to talk to us.And I thought only few support terrorism in Pakistan.

Bilal | 9 years ago | Reply love this guy. Best leader since the the Musharraf of early years.

Agent | 9 years ago | Reply Mr Sharif, first prove that you are actual chief executive of the country then we will consider listening to your four points.

Ali | 9 years ago | Reply Nawaz Sharif is handling it like a boss! Straight forward and firm response. Well done. “India will have to follow the peace plan sooner or later and the sooner they do they better it will be.” “There is no other solution, we have given a proposal for peace in the region,”
