​Official Spokesperson's response to a question on US certification on aid to Pakistan

In response to a question on US certification on aid to Pakistan, the Official Spokesperson stated:



​"How the Government of the United States of America decides to spend US Tax payers money is entirely its prerogative.



However, India does not believe that Pakistan is showing "sustained commitment" or making "significant effort" or ceasing support" or dismantling "bases of operations" of the Laskhar e Tayyaba, Jaish-e-Muhammad, the Haqqani network and quite possibly the Al Qaeda.



Also with increasing citings of Punjabi/urdu speaking elements operating with terrorist groups inside Afghanistan, we now also know that these very groups also pose a significant threat to members of the international community working in Afghanistan including to Indian diplomatic personnel working in the Indian Embassy in Kabul and our four Consulates.



But as I said before-How the Government of the United States of America decides to spend US Tax payers money is entirely its prerogative."
