Tuesday towithdraw their troops fromthe Siachen glacier, the world's
highest battlefield where the vagaries of nature claimed more lives
than actual fighting.
Mr. Sharif also made out a case for Pakistan taking theinitiative
after visiting the Gayari sector of the glacier where round-the-clock
efforts are on to dig out the bodies of the 124 soldiers of 6 Northern
LightInfantry and 11 civilians buried under 80 feet of snow dislodged
by an avalanche on April 7. He is the first politician to make it to
the site of the natural calamity that has left the nation pondering
over the futility of manning the glacier, where not a blade of grass
grows but billions have been spent by both countries to secure their
northern-most frontiers. President Asif Ali Zardari was to have
visited Gayari on Monday, but aborted hisplans because of bad weather.
Speaking to journalists at Skardu after returning fromGayari, Mr.
Sharif said the two countries should resolve the differences
overSiachen and use the moneymore productively, for the development of
the people.
Asked who should take thefirst step, he said Pakistan should take the
initiative even if India was not flexible. Islamabad has long held
that the Siachen dispute is a low-hanging fruit on the list of issues
that need to be resolved between the two countries.Members of the
security establishment argue that itis unfortunate that India is not
agreeing to go back to the pre-1984 position first and then discuss
the border demarcation furthernorth of NJ 9842.
