NEW DELHI: India and the United States have no record of Kashmir being discussed when Prime Minister Narendra Modi met US President Donald Trump on the margins of the G-20 summit in Osaka last month, informed sources told ET.In the flurry of activity that followed Trump’s dramatic claim on Prime Minister Modi seeking his mediation to resolve Kashmir, ET has reliably learnt that both sides have checked their official records of discussion and found no mention of what Trump claimed.The US is believed to have informally confirmed to the Indian side that neither the US Department of State nor the White House have any of Trump’s claims on official record. The Ministry of External Affairs, which has also checked its own record of discussion, found that there was no remote off-the-cuff talk on Kashmir to even set off a misunderstanding, said sources.In the series of informal exchanges that have happened in the past few hours, the Department of State has tried to contain the situation through a statement that wasn’t an outright denial but sought to pull things back closer to Washington’s stock line on the subject.“While Kashmir is a bilateral issue for both parties to discuss,the Trump administration welcomes Pakistan & India sitting down & the United States stands ready to assist,” said the State Department.It’s important to note here that Modi had delivered a very tough message to former US Secretary of State John Kerry in 2015 when the latter tried to broach the subject of Kashmir and Indo-Pak dialogue on the margins of his visit to Vibrant Gujarat. The PM had drawn his red line on Pak-sponsored terrorism to the Obama Administration then and the matter never came up thereafter.Democrat leader in the House of Representatives Brad Sherman, sources said, is aware of PM’s tough line on this issue, which is reflected in his post on social media site Twitter. “Everyone who knows anything about foreign policy in South Asia knows that India consistently opposes third-party mediation re Kashmir. Everyone knows PM Modi would never suggest such a thing. Trump’s statement in amateurish and delusional.”Trump’s claim left South Block stunned because, sources said, there was no other occasion in Osaka like a one-on-one or informal pull aside between the two leaders to raise the possibility or doubt of this issue having cropped up in any unrecorded conversation.The half-an-hour long meeting between Modi and Trump was formal and in the presence of other officials. The issues discussed were broadly on Indo-US trade tensions, the Iran issue and how India has reduced imports from Iran at a huge economic cost, the 5G challenge and bilateral defence ties.At no juncture, sources said, did Kashmir even get mentioned. The only other meeting involving Trump and Modi was the JAI (Japan, America and India) trilateral in which Japanese PM Shinzo Abe was present. The three leaders discussed need to pool in resources to build connectivity projects together.
