It's still not clear whether Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif will attend Prime Minister-designate Narendra Modi's oath ceremony in New Delhi on May 26.

But the invitation extended to him is facing a muted resistance in the Braj region of UP, which lost its son Hemraj on the border last year when Pakistani soldiers beheaded him and took the head away.

When India.Today.in contacted Hemraj's wife to seek her reaction on Modi's invitation to Sharif, she said she had no objections to matters of diplomacy which were better dealt by people in-charge.

Her only demand, she said, was that when Sharif sets foot on India soil, he should come with Hemraj's head.

When asked about their reaction to Hemraj's wife's demand, BJP leaders here appeared hesitant to comment. They said the Prime Minister's Office was not run on a day-to-day accounting basis.

But social activist Deep Sharma said when Pakistani soldiers killed Indian soldiers, Modi and other BJP leaders raised a big ruckus.

"However, Sharif had blamed terrorists for the beheading. Modi has taken the first step towards unilaterally mending relations with Pakistan by forgetting what happened to our jawans, which is demoralising for military personnel who lay down their lives to protect our borders." he said.

Muslim leader Sami Agai said the invitation to Sharif was welcome but Pakistan should return Hemraj's head.
