NEW DELHI: Congress leader Manish Tewari on Sunday said Pakistan must stop promoting terrorism against India, asserting that the situation remained unchanged and Islamabad had taken no action against terrorist infrastructure operating from its soil.Speaking to ANI, Tewari said India’s core demand for Pakistan to act against cross-border terrorism remained unaddressed.“From that Baisaran incident until now, what has actually changed? Has any action been taken against the terrorist infrastructure that Pakistan has woven within its own borders? Absolutely not,” he said.“The core point that India has consistently and repeatedly raised on every international platform is that Pakistan must stop promoting terrorism against India. It must stop. That situation remains exactly where it was,” Tewari added.
