India-Pakistan,
word for word

‘‘Is vimaan ke mare jaane
se Musharraf ki kalai khul gai.’’ (The promises that Musharraf
was boasting of in Kathmandu of promoting peace hold no meaning,
as it seems that Musharraf’s true intentions have been exposed
with this act)
— The television anchor, reporting the shooting down of
the UAV
‘‘How can we even think of
going to war? It will solve nothing. The only way to resolve
this crisis is through peaceful negotiation.’’
— Kuldip Nayar, Rajya Sabha MP

‘‘After this (SAARC) meet,
at least one can be a bit assured that eminent risk of war
has been pushed back for a while. General Musharraf had set
himself three goals when he took over on October 17, and one
of them was normalising relations with India...He will definitely
act once India presents evidence of Pakistan’s involvement.’’
— Nasim Zehra, Pakistani journalist

‘‘The acid test for
Pakistan is what they do with the twenty militants
that India has asked to be extradited. Only then will
we know whether they are genuine in their concern
to combat against terrorism...The fact that Masood
Azhar was arrested is evidence enough that there are
plenty of terrorist camps which are operating from
Pakistan.”
— Arun Jaitley, Union Law Minister
