Pak uninterested for resolving Kashmir issue through talks | | | If former RAW chief, Vikram Sood, has berated Pakistan Army for taking advantage of the ticklish Kashmir issue he is right because Pakistan is not interested in resolving the issue through talks. India had placed some conditions for the resumption of talks but hitherto, Pakistan has neither responded to the offer nor implemented on any demand which included end to export of terrorism. The Kashmir issue is now merely an "excuse" propped by the Pakistan Army to remain in control, said former RAW chief Vikram Sood, who described the neighbouring country's army as the "largest corporate" entity running enterprises from "fertiliser to bread factories". Sood has said any peace talk with Pakistan, which by default thought of India as an enemy state, would be "futile". "Kashmir is now an excuse for the Pakistan army to remain in control in Pakistan." It is now the largest corporate sector in Pakistan. It owns land, owns properties, runs fertiliser factories, runs bread factories, runs atta (wheat flour) factories...It also runs international logistic cell which supplies goons all over the country...(and) heroin "It is now the largest corporate sector in Pakistan. It owns land, owns properties, runs fertiliser factories, runs bread factories, runs atta (wheat flour) factories...It also runs international logistic cell which supplies goons all over the country...(and) heroin," he said. Pakistan, where general elections were held on July 25, will see cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan taking the oath as the country's prime minister this week. Having handled things covertly all his life, the former officer was--for a change--open about his opinion about Pakistan which, he said, was a country or a state just "in name". Experts see little hope that Pakistan's mindset will change in foreseeable future. So anybody who talks of peace with Pakistan, well these are noble thoughts, we should all have them. But if you ask me if we can happily exist as neighbours I think not," he added. With that, Sood was quick enough to clear that nothing of this means that "we (RAW) are into the business of making war". When the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) are talking about war they "are trying to find out what the other chap is doing". People in India are no jihadi forces trying to disrupt lives elsewhere. RAW are always finding ways to avoid war. RAW is providing Indian ministries and defence personnel information so that they are aware and prepared to handle the situations, unlike the ISI which is trying to poke nose in every affair. Underlining the major differences between the RAW and ISI (Pakistani intelligence agency), Experts believe that while the RAW is a "service provider" to policymakers, the ISI is a part of the force that drives Pakistan's country's foreign policy and is like "clandestine core of their army. In fact the ongoing insurgency in Jammu and Kashmir is the creation of the ISI which has unlimited support from any Government that is established in Islamabad. This way if New Delhi still awaits response from Islamabad to its preconditions for opening the channels of dialogue Delhi is mistaken because Army in Pakistan is a force to poke its nose into the political affairs of Pakistan. |
