Time report on LoC inaccurate: India
September 20, 2004 23:57 IST
India on Monday termed as 'completely and wholly inaccurate' a report in Time magazine that suggested that India will offer to 'adjust' the Line of Control 'by a matter of miles eastwards'.
The American magazine, which has put Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on the cover of its latest issue, quoted an unnamed Indian official as saying that while in New York, Singh will make an offer to help defuse the situation in Kashmir.

Reacting to the report, an official spokesman accompanying Singh said, "This is completely and wholly inaccurate. Any suggestion that the prime minister will make such an offer is factually wrong."As has been said on several occasions, including at the prime minister's press conference at 10 Downing Street this afternoon, the prime minister looks forward to his meeting with President Gen Pervez Musharraf of Pakistan in New York, and to discuss all matters of bilateral interest including a review of the composite dialogue.
But "There is no question of any territorial concession being offered by India to Pakistan."
