IN AN effort to put an end to the controversy over the Indo-Pakistan joint statement, Home Minister P Chidambaram, claimed on Saturday that India had nothing to do with Pakistan's internal affairs, in a reference to the suggestion of India's involvement in Balochistan. Chidamabarm asserted that India had nothing to do with the internal problems of Pakistan. Analysts have questioned why India had allowed the mention of Baluchistan in the joint statement issued by both countries in Egypt, after talks between Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and his counterpart Yousuf Raza Gilani.
Manmohan Singh has come under fire both from his own party and also from the opposition for allowing the mention of Balochistan in the joint statement. Although, the PM is reported to have received the support of the Congress high command on the issue, political circles are concerned over what is being seen as a potential foreign policy goof-up by the Indian side.
Questions are now being raised as to why Indians gave an impression that they were ready to de-link terror from the dialogue process. The inclusion of Balochistan has also created a major flutter in foreign policy circles; Indo-Pak observers have questioned the soundness of some aspects of the joint statement.
