India on Sunday said terrorist camps are still operating in Pakistan and New Delhi has photographic evidence to prove it.

"I have told Pakistan Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz that the terrorist camps have not been dismantled. I have told him that we can provide photographic evidence," External Affairs Minister K Natwar Singh told BBC.

Natwar Singh, who was in London to attend a meeting of foreign ministers of the G4 countries, hoped the peace process with Pakistan would continue unimpeded "unless there is a terrorist attack like the one witnessed in London."

He said several countries in India's neighbourhood shared his views on the question of terrorist camps.

He said the United Progressive Alliance government led by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is committed to the peace process but regretted that "every now and then new statements" kept emanating from Pakistan.

"Every week a new statement comes out. Sometimes it is the foreign minister, the prime minister or even the President of Pakistan. We are not saying anything. The prime minister has made it clear that we are committed to finding a solution to all outstanding issues but a 52-year-old problem cannot be resolved overnight," he said.
