The Congress party on Monday said Union Minister of State for Commerce Jairam Ramesh had not crossed the Indo-Pakistan border. “It is absolutely baseless. Ramesh did not cross the boundary, nor did he commit any diplomatic embarrassment,” AICC media cell chairman M Veerappa Moily told reporters. Pakistan had sought a report from its officials on Ramesh’s “stroll” into Pakistani territory at the Wagah border on Friday in “violation” of rules and regulations. “We are in the process of getting information from Ramesh about it,” Congress spokesperson Jayanthi Natarjan said.
