Sonia tells Pak: Be civilised!

January 18, 2013 16:21

Congress Chief Sonia Gandhi's rhetoric on the LoC transgressions today has come under fire for being tepid. At the Chintan Shivir today, Sonis said India's dialogue with immediate neighbours must be based on accepted principles of civilised behaviour, in an apparent reference to Pakistan which has proposed talks between the Foreign Ministers.

"Better and closer relations with our immediate neighbours will not only make for regional peace - they will also have a positive impact on some of our own border states.

"However, let us be clear. Our dialogue must be based on accepted principles of civilised behaviour. We will never compromise on our vigil and preparedness to deal with terrorism and threats on our borders," she said in her address.
