India News: Parties should not play petty politics, but come together to provide relief to the family of Indian death row prisoner Sarabjit Singh in a Pakistani jail, minister of state for parliamentary affairs Rajeev Shukla said on Monday.

"Some people are trying to make political gains out of this issue. We should work together and provide relief to him (Sarabjit) and his family instead of indulging in petty politics," Shukla told reporters.
