What Mr. Prasad is stating makes sense.  Even after five years of 26/11 happening, Pakistan is still unable to bring the culprits to books and looking for excuses to let them scot free.  Under these circumstances, it is a sheer waste of time and energy to engage with Pakistan on any of the issues.  India rather divert its attention to other more important issues facing the nation. As far as Pakistan's policy towards India is concerned, a civilian government in Islamabad is a handicapped body whose hands have been tied behind its back and legs have been crippled by the nexus of military/ISI of Pakistan.  As they say, tango dance can be performed by two persons with strong legs and satisfactory clapping with a great noise can be performed by two healthy hands.  In Pakistan's case, one should not expect any satisfactory tango dance and noisy clapping.  Hence, it is a waste of valuable resources and time to engage for any dialogues with Pakistan.  However, this writer wants to caution Mr. Prasad that if BJP is put on the throne next year, he should not forget the guidelines he is suggesting towards dealing with Pakistan.  Sometimes, it is easy to criticize other's policy than to implement so-called one's own better policy.   THIS WRITER WILL BE WATCHING THE TURN OUT OF ELECTION NEXT YEAR AND THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE BJP'S POLICY TOWARDS PAKISTAN, IF THEY COME INTO POWER.
