LoC not open for everybody: Pranab
LoC not open for everybody: Pranab
Pranab suggests free transit across the Loc for relief work.

New Delhi: Defence Minister Pranab Mukherjee said Pakistan's suggestion to open the Line of Control (LoC) could not be done for "anybody and everybody" but places could be identified from where relief material for earthquake victims could transit freely.

"If it (Islamabad's proposal) covers those carrying relief material, they can go without obstacles," he said during an interview with BBC.

Observing it was imperative that India and Pakistan should leave the past behind and move forward, he said the massive quake could not "reverse" the process of the last 50 years.

He said that the calamity has provided an opportunity to create an atmosphere where better understanding (between India and Pakistan) is possible and India could provide assistance to the victims across the LoC.
