New Delhi: Reflecting anger in New Delhi after the killing of 18 soldiers in Jammu and Kashmir's Uri, Union Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said today that "India-Pakistan relations will never be the same again".
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, at a meeting this morning with his seniormost ministers to discuss the government's response to Sunday's terror attack, decided that Pakistan must be diplomatically isolated at every international forum, sources said.
A series of meetings betrayed a sense of urgency after the latest attack - the deadliest the army has seen in recent years.
"Pakistan's actions have gone beyond tolerance," said Mr Prasad. "While Pakistan lives in a chronic state of denial, there is conclusive evidence of its role," he added.
The opposition Congress took a swipe at PM Modi, reminding him of his attacks in the past questioning the previous UPA government's policy on Pakistan.
"If it is true that the Jaish-e-Mohammed is behind the attack, then it begs another question: Could Kandahar have been handled differently? Because it is after his release that Masood Azhar formed JeM," said Mr Tewari.
Mr Tewari accused the government of not having a clear policy towards Pakistan. "The Modi government should ask itself two questions. One, what do you want to do with Pakistan, and secondly, what can you do with Pakistan," Mr Tewari said.
