New Delhi:(Page3 News Network)-The government today said that terrorism is affecting all aspects of the relationship between India and Pakistan. Making a statement in both the Houses of Parliament on the Pakistan Interior minister Rehman Malik's visit to India from 14th to 16th of this month, Home minister Sushil Kumar Shinde said the need for bringing guilty of the Mumbai terror attack to justice was emphasised.
Mr Shinde said both the countries have agreed to enhance people to people contacts and confidence building measures to proceed in an atmosphere free of terrorism and violence.
The Home minister said an Indian delegation will visit Pakistan in this week to settle the revised terms of agreement to facilitate an early visit of the Judicial Commission from Pakistan.
Mr Shinde said the visiting Pakistani minister was informed about the concerted attempts by terrorists to infiltrate across the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir.
Mr Shinde also informed that a National Investigation Agency team along with officials from home ministry will visit Pakistan in January 2013 to operationalise the task force on counterfeiting and drugs trafficking.
The Home minister also informed that the home secretaries would endeavour to meet in the first quarter of 2013 to review progress. Mr Shinde said bringing fugitives of the Mumbai bomb blasts of 1993 to justice and fake currency notes also figured during the discussion.
Earlier, raising the issue in the Rajya Sabha, BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad said Pakistan interior minister Rehman Malik's statement about internal issues of the country is unprovoked and unwarranted.
