Union Home Minister Amit Shah unequivocally stated on Friday that India has no plans to engage in talks with Pakistan until terrorism ceases. 'Talks and bombs cannot coexist,' he asserted, emphasizing India's firm stance on the matter.

Releasing the BJP's manifesto for Jammu and Kashmir, Shah dismissed the possibility of dialogue with Pakistan amid ongoing terrorist activities. He reiterated that Article 370 is now a historical relic and cannot be reinstated.

Responding to calls from the National Conference and PDP for talks with Pakistan and the restoration of cross-LoC trade, Shah maintained that these demands are unfeasible until terrorism and the trade-terror ecosystem are dismantled.
