Dont expect miracles from Indo-Pak dialogue: Antony

PANAJI (India) (Agencies) - Indian Defence Minister AK Antony on Wednesday alleged that Pakistan was not taking serious steps to destroy what he called 42 terror camps on its soil.
Stating that India was exploring all possibilities, Antony also said he did not expect any miracles from the dialogue with Pakistan.
All the terror camps in Pakistan are active. Pakistan has not taken any serious steps to destroy these camps, Antony told a Press conference on the sidelines of the launch of Indian Coast Guard Ship (ICGS) offshore patrol vessel (OPV) Vishwast at the port town of Vasco, 30km from here.
The Indian Minister said India was one of the important targets for terrorist groups and that there were 42 terror training camps in Pakistan which were aimed at creating violence in India.
Alleging that Pakistan had not taken serious steps to control the terror apparatus directed at New Delhi, Antony said that despite this, India would continue to talk to Pakistan.
However, I do not expect any miracles, he said.
The foreign secretaries of the two countries had held talks last month, in the first structured dialogue since 26/11. Pakistan has in the past routinely denied allegations that it arms, funds and trains anti-India elements.
Speaking on the issue of Line of Control infiltration, the Indian Defence Minister attributed it to Jammu and Kashmirs fast-paced return to normalcy.
Kashmir is becoming normal. Violence is less. This situation cannot be tolerated by forces inimical to India, he said, adding that since normalcy was coming to Kashmir fast, infiltration was increasing.
Earlier, ICGS Vishwast was commissioned by Antony in the presence of the director general ICG, Anil Chopra, and Goa Chief Minister Digambar Kamat.
