No compromise with country’s honour: Rajnath

Update: 2016-10-11 23:17 GMT
Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Monday said in spite of all the efforts of the Narendra Modi-led government to improve relations with Pakistan, there has been no reciprocation from Islamabad and stressed that there will be “no compromise with the honour of the country”. “Former prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee used to say, neighbours cannot be changed and all out efforts should be made to improve ties with them,” he told a BJP workers’ meeting here.

“(In response to efforts to improve relations) Kargil was committed...our Prime Minister Narendra Modi made every effort, invited the heads of all the neighbouring countries at his swearing-in ceremony...(the leader) of Pakistan also came...we made all the efforts to improve relations,” Singh, who visited his Parliamentary constituency for the first time since the army’s surgical strikes in PoK, said.
