It is not surprising that the Narendra Modi government has unilaterally cancelled the 25 August foreign secretary level talks with Pakistan. Not doing so would have been surprising after what has happened today in New Delhi and in the past ten days along the International Border and the Line of Control.

Here is a quick 360 degree analysis of the latest development in India-Pakistan bilateral relations.

The timing

The Modi government waited for the first set of meeting of Pakistan High Commissioner in New Delhi Abdul Basit with Kashmiri separatists to take place. The Indian government did not block it as it is this meeting which has given it the ammunition to fire the first salvo at Pakistan. Foreign secretary telephoned Basit today and told him tersely: "Either talk to separatists or talk to us." Though the second set of meetings between the Pakistani envoy and leaders of the Hurriyat Conference is scheduled for Tuesday, the Modi government will most likely block it, showing the separatists and Pakistan its fist of fury.
