"As per my knowledge, the camps have not become operational because... we are waiting for concurrence from the Pakistani side," External Affairs Ministry Spokesman Navtej Sarna told newsmen here.
India had on Saturday proposed setting up of relief camps for quake-hit victims of AJK at three places - Teetwal, Kaman and Chakan da Bagh in Indian occupied Kashmir - along the LoC if Pakistan agreed to it.
Responding to the date proposed for opening the LoC, Sarna said, it was set for making the camps ready. "We were prepared to be ready. But we can be ready, we can start after we receive concurrence," he added.
The spokesman said that a delegation of senior Indian officials, led by Dilip Sinha, Joint Secretary in the External Affairs Ministry, would hold talks with the Pakistani officials in Islamabad on October 29 to discuss the proposals made by both the countries with regard to opening of LoC for co-ordination in relief work.
According to a news report, the Indian delegation will also include officials from the Home Ministry, Army Headquarters and IOK government.
