India’s aid offer being considered

Re: India’s aid offer being considered

Let me interject here. The Daily Times you are quoting has made a very big factual error there by stating that India offered Pakistan $500 million aid after the Earthquake. It did not, that was the total international pledge at a donor conference, so the Daily Times contention is quite ludicrous.

The Daily Times also claimed that Saudi Arabia had not offered any aid to Pakistan for the floods. It was quickly countered by the Saudi Embassy for this claim, and my thread in Pakistan Affairs proves how wrong they were.

So let’s not keep quoting the same discredited link over and over again as it does not help your argument at all. I challenge you to find any other veifiable link to state that India offered Pakistan $500 milllion aid after the Earthquake?

That said I think Pakistan should graciously accept India’s present offer of $5 million aid for flood relief. It’s a kind gesture.
