Setting the tone for the meeting, the Indian Prime Minister said at the UN General Assembly that the “terror machinery” in Pakistan, which receives “sustenance” there, must be shut down to allow progress in the dialogue process.

He said the “epicentre of terrorism” is in Pakistan and wanted the problem to be addressed.

At the same time, sources said, the Prime Minister is open to any new move that would help in establishing peace in the region and addressing the issues between the two countries.

One of these proposals is forming a joint mechanism to monitor tensions along the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir, officials said.
