NEW DELHI, July 25 (Xinhua) -- Indian Home Minister P. Chidambaram categorically denied on Saturday that Pakistan had given proof to India of the latter's involvement in the terrorist attacks in Balochistan province of Pakistan.
"We are not involved in Balochistan, we have nothing to do with Pakistan's internal problems in Balochistan. In fact, the Balochistan leader has said that he gets no support from India. Besides, why should we get involved when we have enough problems on our western borders with Pakistan," Chidambaram told the media.
"Pakistan must produce evidence before making such allegations," he said.
Pakistani Interior Minister Rehman Malik said on Friday that India was interfering in Balochistan and India-run terror camps in Afghanistan were training youth from Balochistan.
Malik made this statement while speaking in the Senate, the upper house of Pakistan's parliament.
"The problems of the people of Balochistan will be solved and the details regarding this would be unveiled in the Senate soon," Malik said.
He also suggested that Prime Minister Manmohan Singh agreed to the mention of Balochistan in the joint statement after his Pakistani counterpart Yousuf Raza Gilani confronted him in Sharm-el-Sheikh with a dossier detailing India's covert activities in the resource-rich volatile province of Balochistan.
Malik also alleged in the Senate that India was responsible for the attacks on the Sri Lankan cricket team and the Manawan police academy in Lahore last March.
India has rubbished both these accusations and in fact, official sources also vehemently denied media reports that a dossier had been given by Pakistan to India which contained "evidence" of India's involvement in Balochistan.
