Concluding his three-day visit to India, Pakistan Interior Minister Rehman Malik today said that his mission of the visit has been fulfilled and the only target for both the countries is to maintain peace. Malik also invited Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to visit Pakistan. Meanwhile, the BJP criticised Malik for opining that Abu Jundal, one of the handlers of the 2008 Mumbai attacks, was an Indian militant. Vice President of BJP Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi said that till cross border militancy is not addressed by Pakistan, the talks would be meaningless. Earlier in the day, Malik had stirred yet another controversy by blaming Indian security agencies for failure to prevent the 2008 Mumbai terror attack and had alleged that Indian non-state actors were involved in the massacre.
