‘Lashkar has tasted blood,it won’t stop’

Pound,who was in India this week,was reacting after British Foreign Secretary David Miliband wrote that India needed to resolve the Kashmir dispute in order to combat the LeT.

Writing in the Guardian yesterday,Miliband said “although I understand the current difficulties,resolution of the dispute over Kashmir would help deny extremists in the region one of their main calls to arms,and allow Pakistani authorities to focus more effectively on tackling the threat on their western borders.”

Pound said “India is much closer to the Line of Control than Britain. Kargil happened not too long ago. If I were the Indian minister of defence,I’d want other countries to keep quiet about the subject.”
