India objects to Pakistani remark

India on Tuesday objected sharply to Pakistan's attempts to link the ongoing protests in Jammu and Kashmir to the peace process between the two countries.
Pakistan Foreign Minister Makhdoom Shah Mahmood Qureshi had said that the current situation in Kashmir has affected the environment for talks with India. He also said that Indo-Pak peace process would be hindered if violence in the Valley persisted.
In reply, India has strongly warned Pakistan against "interfering in its internal matters".
