Amid easing of ongoing tensions between the nuclear-rivals, India on Saturday demanded that Pakistan take concrete crackdown on terror groups operating from its territory.
As India returned its top diplomat to Islamabad, Pakistan also announced that its high commissioner to India was returning to New Delhi for joint efforts to address and consult ongoing tensions that flared up after February 14 attack on a convoy of Indian paramilitary forces in Indian-Controlled Kashmir.
Indian Ministry of External Affairs spokesman Raveesh Kumar said Saturday that a reported Pakistani crackdown this week on seminaries, mosques and hospitals belonging to banned organizations, and arrest of dozens of people were not enough.
Pakistan should take concrete steps “against terrorists and terror infrastructure” on its territory, he said.
Raveesh remarks come after Pakistan launched some operations against so-called terrorist groups, capturing 44 members of the militant groups, including members of the banned organization blamed for deadly attack that killed at least 40 Indian forces.
