Pakistan Still Supporting Kashmir Terrorists: Defence Minister Defence Minister A.K. Antony said Sunday that Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf's latest proposals on solving the Kashmir issue had nothing new in them and Islamabad should stop abetting terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir. 'This is not a new statement (by Musharraf). I have heard many such statements from him in the past so many years,' he told reporters. 'Instead of statements, Pakistan should do some action, stop terrorism. Even now, Pakistan is giving support to terrorists,' Antony told reporters in Poonch while inaugurating a model village. On the subjects of infiltration and modernisation of the weaponry of the armed forces and the recent cases of suicides by soldiers and officers, the defence minister said the government was aware of all these issues. Infiltration from across the Line of Control (LoC) had come down, but 'it has not stopped', he said, adding that support to terrorists from across the border was still continuing. Antony said a commission of inquiry probing into the causes - and remedies for - the stress-related killings among soldiers in Jammu and Kashmir and elsewhere would submit its report in the next two months. The defence ministry would take into account all the recommendations of the inquiry commission. To a question on induction of a nuclear submarine into the Indian Navy, he said that measures were being undertaken to modernise the three armed forces with latest weaponry. He did not specify whether nuclear submarines would be inducted. Antony complimented the soldiers for working in 'highly difficult' living conditions and said the government would do everything to improve them. +++ -------------------------- Want to discuss this topic?
