Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf has hinted that India is playing into the hands of terrorists by stalling the Indo-Pak peace process in reaction to terror attacks.

"We must not allow such terrorist acts to undermine the historic opportunity for lasting peace between Pakistan and India," he was quoted as saying.

But India had said the Mumbai blasts had the support of people from across the border before canceling a foreign secretary-level talks.

Even while returning from the G8 summit at St Petersburg, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, without referring to the cancellation as a setback, said it was time for India to reflect on its relations with Pakistan.

What do you think? Has India done the right thing by putting the peace process on hold. Or as the General has said, are we playing into the hands of terrorists? Tell us.
