National Security Advisers of India and Pakistan are scheduled to meet in New Delhi on August 23rd to, hopefully, sort out differences between two countries.  As we know, the nexus of Pakistani military/ISI is never in favor of ameliorating relationship between India and Pakistan and try their best to derail this effort.  The trick they play is to send invitation to the Kashmiri separatists to meet Pakistani diplomats in New Delhi right before this summit meeting is due to take place.  This of course upsets the Indian government, and last year, under this scenario the impending meeting between both NSAs was cancelled.  However, this writer is baffled to note that the scheduled meeting on August 23rd is on schedule even though the Pakistani nexus has played the same trick by inviting the Kashmiri separatists to meet the Pakistani diplomats in New Delhi.  I wonder why?  Is India taking a different stand this time under some kind of diplomatic pressure or is it portraying its flexible nature to see to what extent this can damage the existing scenario in the Kashmir valley?  Whatever the reason or circumstances may, one thing is sure that India should not expect any wonders from this impending summit meeting.  This will be a complete failure and waste of time and energy.   India ought to know that till the Pakistani military status is over powering the elected civilian government in Islamabad, the relationship between India and Pakistan cann't be improved.  We have been seeing it for the last 68 years and we can wait another 68 years or more, we will find the same status quo.  Choice lies with India.
