Kashmir borders can't be redrawn, says PM Manmohan

"I have publicly stated that there can be no redrawing of borders (in Jammu and Kashmir)," the Prime Minister said.

"...but our two countries can work together to ensure that these are borders of peace, that people-to-people contacts grow in a manner in which people do not even worry whether they are located on this side of the border or that side," he told CNN in an interview aired yesterday.
"If trade is free, if people-to-people contacts (are there) and our both countries competing with each other to enable people on both sides to lead the life of dignity and self respect. Those are issues, which we can discuss, we can reach agreement," he said.
