India Highlights Terrorism Concerns Amid Ongoing Functional Ties with Pakistan
India's External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar informed Parliament that bilateral relations with Pakistan remain constrained by ongoing cross-border terrorism, which India views as a state policy by Pakistan. Despite tensions, functional engagements continue, including DGMO-level talks, missile test notifications, nuclear installations exchanges, and prisoner list sharing. Since the 2019 Pulwama attack, India has taken diplomatic and trade measures against Pakistan, while Pakistan has downgraded relations and suspended trade. Both countries maintain diplomatic missions and communication channels to manage operational matters.
