However, Rajnath Singh asked the Pakistan Rangers to ensure that no infiltration takes place from Pakistan to India.
Singh said that India can be called “more Islamic than Pakistan” as more Muslims live here than that country.
“India has more Muslim population than Pakistan. India can be called as more Islamic than Pakistan,” he said according to Zeenews.
The Indian home minister further said that like India, Pakistan too is a victim of terrorism and both countries must unite against the menace.
Singh said that India wants friendly relations with all its neighbours and that was the reason, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had invited all heads of neighbouring countries when he took charge and even met his Pakistan counterpart Nawaz Sharif at Ufa in Russia.
In his remarks, the DG Pakistan Rangers said that Pakistan also wants peace along the border and cordial relations with India.
Farooq Burki said that both sides hope to defuse the situation along the Indo-Pak border in future amicably.
Major General Umar Farooq Burki is heading a 16-member Pakistani delegation in New Delhi for three-day talks with the Indian Border Security Force (BSF) officials to discuss border issues including violations of the 2003 ceasefire agreement, cross border smuggling and handing over the people who mistakenly cross the border.
