Pakistan’s Army and political leadership are on “one page” to take dialogue with India forward, Pakistan’s Prime Minister Imran Khan said on Wednesday at the ground-breaking ceremony for the corridor. Pakistan’s Chief of Army Staff General Qamar Bajwa was also present. The four-kilometre corridor from the border with India will allow pilgrims easy access and will be ready in time for Sikh founder Guru Nanak’s 550th birth anniversary on November 23, 2019. In a speech largely reaching out to the Indian government to “break the shackles of the past” and restart engagement, Mr. Khan also struck a discordant note on Kashmir, referring to the dispute as the “single issue” between India and Pakistan. India has maintained that terrorism sponsored by Pakistan is holding back the dialogue process. Asked about the reference, Ms. Badal told The Hindu that the remark didn’t change the Indian stand.

What does Mr. Khan imply by calling the Kashmir dispute the “single issue” between India and Pakistan?

Question

Pakistan’s Army and political leadership are on “one page” to take dialogue with India forward, Pakistan’s Prime Minister Imran Khan said on Wednesday at the ground-breaking ceremony for the corridor. Pakistan’s Chief of Army Staff General Qamar Bajwa was also present. The four-kilometre corridor from the border with India will allow pilgrims easy access and will be ready in time for Sikh founder Guru Nanak’s 550th birth anniversary on November 23, 2019. In a speech largely reaching out to the Indian government to “break the shackles of the past” and restart engagement, Mr. Khan also struck a discordant note on Kashmir, referring to the dispute as the “single issue” between India and Pakistan. India has maintained that terrorism sponsored by Pakistan is holding back the dialogue process. Asked about the reference, Ms. Badal told The Hindu that the remark didn’t change the Indian stand.

What does Mr. Khan imply by calling the Kashmir dispute the “single issue” between India and Pakistan?

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. The phrase "single issue" used by Mr. Khan clearly indicates that he considers the Kashmir dispute to be the only unresolved matter between India and Pakistan.

2. If there were multiple unresolved issues, he would not have described Kashmir as the "single issue".

3. Therefore, Mr. Khan's statement implies that Kashmir is the sole issue requiring resolution between the two countries.

**Answer:** According to Mr. Khan, there is only one issue between India and Pakistan that needs resolution.
