Sir — Former diplomat Vivek Katju’s suggestion that New Delhi must find a way to talk to the Pakistan Army to improve India-Pakistan relations, is worth considering. But the framework of the Simla Agreement must form the basis of such a dialgoue.
Mr Katju has rightly pointed out that the Siachen issue should be dropped for the time-being from the India-Pakistan dialogue process because China has its presence in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. The removal of Indian troops from Siachen will not be a good idea.
