Pakistan Rules out Musharraf-Vajpayee Meeting in NAM Summit
Pakistan on Monday ruled out any possibility of one-on-one meeting between President General Pervez Musharraf and Indian Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee on the sidelines of Non-Aligned Movement's summit in Kuala Lumpur.

"There is no chance of any meeting of President Musharraf with Vajpayee during the NAM summit that is taking place in the capital of Malaysia," Foreign Office spokesman Aziz Ahmed Khan told a weekly news briefing in Islamabad.

Khan also rejected the allegations leveled by the Indian president about cross Line of Control (LoC) infiltration in Kashmir.

Indian President Mohammad Azad, while addressing the parliament the other day, alleged that infiltration had been taking place in India-held Kashmir from across the LoC.

He said that when such allegations were challenged and asked for a mechanism to check them, the Indians shied away.

In this connection, Khan said Pakistan had proposed the deployment of monitors across the LoC but India opposed the suggestion, as it would deprive it of a propaganda tool.

He again said that no infiltration was taking place from the Pakistani side of the LoC.

Khan said that Pakistan wanted to resolve all issues including Kashmir with India through dialogue and the international community was also supportive of this position.

He added that the only civilized way of resolving problems was through negotiations and Pakistan had kept proposing this model.
