Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Abdul Sattar said on January 1 in Kathmandu, Nepal, that it would consider the extradition of wanted persons under the SAARC Anti-Terrorism Convention if India met with legal obligations, such as the indictment of the people demanded. "We can consider the extradition of these persons only after India fulfils all the legal requirements", he said. Under the SAARC Convention, India can invoke the right of extradition after completing the proper procedure and providing the evidence. ‘It’s a legal issue not a political one,’ Sattar said while answering a question about the list of wanted persons given by India this week to Pakistan. "Extradition is a legal concept," Sattar said, adding that there was no bilateral extradition agreement between India and Pakistan.

Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee, addressing a news conference prior to his departure for Kathmandu, expressed dissatisfaction with steps taken by Pakistan against terrorist outfit. He said that the recent steps taken by Pakistan against terrorist outfits were just not enough and showed that Pakistan was not willing to act in a decisive manner. The PM said Pakistan’s demand for evidence against terrorists living on its soil and wanted by India in connection with the December 13 attack on Parliament and other subversive activities was nothing but a ‘cruel joke’. ‘‘I am at a loss to understand what evidence Pakistan wants when it is a well-established fact that our neighbour is responsible for the terrorist activities in India,’’ he added. The PM said: ‘‘If Pakistan is at all sincere in curbing terrorism, it should tell us about the action taken by it and clear all doubts in our minds.’’ He opined that there was no point in a dialogue with Musharraf unless he showed willingness to end cross-border terrorism.

Responding to Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf's gesture of friendship, Indian Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajapayee called on the former to crack down on terrorists committing mindless violence in India. The Prime Minister and the Pakistan President were speaking during the inaugural of the summit meeting of the South Asian Association for Regional Co-operation (SAARC) on January 5 at Kathmandu, Nepal. Prime Minister Vajpayee also said, in his speech, that after extending the offer for friendship, "… President Musharraf must follow this the gesture by not permitting any activity in Pakistan or any territory in its control today that allows terrorists to perpetrate mindless violence in India." The Prime Minister added that Pakistan must learn a lesson from events in Afghanistan which have proved that terrorism can boomerang on its creator. He also proposed updating of the 1987 SAARC Convention on Suppresssion of the Terrorism in a contemporary framework of cooperation. Terming the Convention as ahead of its times, when it was adopted, the Prime Minister added that "Unfortunately, consequent action was not taken by some countries,". Pakistan and Bangladesh are yet to implement national laws mandated under the provisions of the convention. Other leaders of member countries too focussed their speeches on terrorism.

According to Nepalese official sources, Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba will seek more Indian support for the fight against Maoist insurgents during his five-day visit to India starting March 20. In his talks with Indian Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee, the Nepalese Prime Minister is expected to exchange views on the red corridor running from Nepal into India through Bihar and Andhra Pradesh. Nepal in the past expressed its concerns over Maoist training camps in India from where rebels find easy access to Nepal across a porous border. India recently provided two helicopters to help Nepal fight the insurgents after they stepped up their violent campaign to oust the constitutional monarchy and install a one-party communist republic. Deputy Foreign Minister Arjun Jung Bahadur Singh, while speaking to the media in Kathmandu on March 18, said, “We will thank them for their support and seek Indian help in fighting the Maoists”. He said Nepal faced a shortage of ‘means and resources’ in battling the guerrillas and needed international support.
