Pakistan's foreign minister has criticised the behaviour of his Indian counterpart during Thursday's high-profile talks in Islamabad.
Shah Mehmood Qureshi told reporters on Friday SM Krishna and his delegation had not been ready for dialogue.
He also said Mr Krishna had repeatedly interrupted the talks for phone calls from Delhi.
Mr Krishna denied the "extraordinary" claims. It was the foreign ministers' first bilateral meeting since 2008.
It was also the third high-level contact between the two nuclear-armed South Asian neighbours in six months.

My Comment: After the usual jibes, they agreed to disagree .... and to meet later again for further talks. Unfortunately .... this does not bring the peace process or cooperation on important issues like terrorism any bit closer.
But at least they are not shooting at each other and threatening war.

Pakistani politicians love to place the game of showing 'they are smarter', which comes from their inherent extreme inferiority complex. Qureshi's cheap jibes have clearly shown the insincerity of Pakistani state and also once again put the Indian side on back foot. My only question is, why the state of India or the Indian people want to be friends with worse snake in the world. Pakistanis are a breed by themselves, unique in this world, they can never be any one's friends and will always remain trouble makers for the world.
