A Punjab Minister today blamed the "weak foreign policy" of India for the brutal attack on Sarabjit Singh in a Pakistan jail and Chinese incursion in Ladakh.
"Indian government's foreign policy is weak and both Pakistan and China are taking its advantage. While China is camping in our territory, Pakistan had hatched a conspiracy to eliminate Sarabjit," Punjab Minister of Industry and Commerce and Technical Education Anil Joshi said.
He said, "The government is paralysed and simply could not act against these countries."
He demanded that Sarabjit who was attacked by fellow prisoners at Kot Lakhpat jail in Lahore should be sent back to India on humanitarian grounds.
