Government sources made it unequivocally clear that India sees no role for external intervention in the matter. "We have a very clear position on Kashmir, there is only one matter left- the return of Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (PoK). There is nothing else to talk. If they talk about handing over terrorists, we can talk. We don't want anyone to mediate. We don't need anyone to mediate." The Indian position is that the whole of Jammu & Kashmir is an integral part of India.
