Malik’s visit and His Comments:
Pakistan Interior Minister Rehman Malik today made a subtle attempt
to change the narrative of the fragile India-Pakistan relationship by
including Babri Masjid in the framework.

“I bring a message of peace from the people of Pakistan. We
do not want 9/11, Bombay blast, Samjhauta blast or Babri Masjid. Let us
forget the past and move ahead,” Mr Malik said while addressing the
media with Indian Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde in New Delhi on
December 14.

The 1992 Babri Masjid demolition in Ayodhya has not been raised by
Pakistan in the context of 26/11 or any terror attack earlier. By
equating Babri Masjid with the 26/11 attacks, Mr Malik may have been
trying to address his constituency back home, but it took the Indian
delegation by surprise and invited a retort from Mr Shinde.

“I am happy that you assure us that you will do everything to bring
the masterminds of 26/11 to justice, but Pakistan has failed to
deliver,” Mr Shinde grimly remarked as the function to operationalise
the new liberalised visa agreement between India and Pakistan was
hastily brought to an end.

The Pakistan minister also met the family of Sarabjit Singh, the
Indian on death row in a Lahore jail. He promised them visa to travel to
Pakistan and meet Mr Singh. “I will try my best to help you,” he told
the family. Mr Singh has been on death row in Pakistan after being
convicted for bombings in 1990.

Mr Malik is on a two-day visit to India as both countries
introduce a new visa system that will make cross-border travel easier
for businesspeople, tourists and religious pilgrims. But the talks with
Mr Malik will focus extensively on the 26/11 attacks in Mumbai and
India’s demand for action against mastermind Hafiz Saeed, chief of the
Jamaat-ud-Dawa.

Mr Malik arrived in Delhi nearly four hours behind schedule because
there was complete confusion over where his plane should land. His
office was reportedly told by Indian officials in Islamabad that he
could land at the Delhi’s Palam Technical Airport, often used by VIPs.

However, the Indian Air Force, which controls the airport, did not
clear the plane’s arrival. While some sources said the Air Force had not
been informed of Mr Malik’s arrival, others said that permission to
land at Palam was denied because the handling and clearing agent
assigned to deal with the Pakistani delegation was not cleared for the
high-security area. The minister’s plane was then asked to land at
Delhi’s T-3 international airport.
