PM Denies India is Linked to Taliban


IANS

Srinagar, Oct 29: Prime Minister Manmohan Singh Thursday denied Islamabad's allegations that India was backing the insurgency in Balochistan and the Taliban to destabilise Pakistan.

"What was said about the Indian role in Balochistan has no basis. Those who are levelling these false charges know it jolly well," the prime minister told a news conference marking the end of his two-day visit to Jammu and Kashmir.

"The same applies to the accusation of India supporting the Taliban. Nothing can be far fetched, far from the truth. We are victims of terrorism aided and abetted from the Pakistan side. Both references to Balochistan and what is said about Taliban are widely false," he said.

The Pakistani allegations follow a dramatic spurt in violence across the country blamed on the Taliban.
