Kashmir is an integral part of India, and will be always. You (Pakistan) should stop dreaming about it

The minister hits back at Pakistan directly
What does Pakistan mean by 'our conditions to talk?
We have tried all to make Pakistan see reason
We have tried to talk to Pakistan as friends to resolve issues
We have extended hands of friendship in the last two years
But what have we got in return - Pathankot, Uri?

Attacking Pakistan strongly, Swaraj says:
There are nations in the world that promote terrorism and the world knows about them
If a nation refuses to come together for this, they need to be isolated
Such nations that allow UN-designated terrorists to roam about freely have no place in this grouping

"Terror is not yours and mine. It has to be fought together," Swaraj says
19:25 (IST) Sep 26
We need to ask a few questions:
One must know who gives support to these terrorists?
They have no banks, no factories to build arms. So who supports them?

According to diplomats, Sushma's tone during her address is likely to be tough and blunt

Swaraj is also expected to give a befitting reply to an earlier address at the UNGA by Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif
19:07 (IST) Sep 26
The minister is expected to take matters forward from Prime Minister Narendra Modi's first public speech after the September 18 Uri attack at Kozhikode in Kerala on Saturday, where he denounced Pakistan for supporting and exporting terror, besides warning that the neighbouring country will be isolated as a "terror state".
18:11 (IST) Sep 26
At the meeting, it was decided that India will exploit to the maximum the capacity of three Pak-controlled rivers — Indus, Chenab, Jhelum — as per the Indus Water Treaty.

Taking a cue from Prime Minister Narendra Modi's first public speech post the September 18 Uri attack back home on Saturday, the External Affairs Minister is likely to take a tough stance, and is likely to be blunt, vis-a-vis the western neighbour.
10:13 (IST) Sep 26
External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj will address the UN General Assembly (UNGA) today.
She is expected to lead India's attack on Pakistan and seek global support to dub it a "terror state", following the Uri terror attack that killed 18 soldiers.
