Thereby avoiding the whole issue of Hindooo cooties ...
NEW DELHI: Following Pakistan’s request, India has decided to route its aid of $5 million for flood victims through the UN. Ministry of External Affairs spokesman Vishnu Prakash on Monday said, “India had no problem with routing the relief material through the UN.”

During a high-level meeting in Islamabad on Friday, Pakistan had welcomed IndiaÂ’s aid offer but asked New Delhi to route it through the UN. Prakash said the Indian government would keep in touch with the UN agencies concerned to work out the modalities. The money would now be donated to the UN appeal fund of $460 million.

“We welcome Pakistan’s decision to accept the offer of assistance made by the government of India,” Prakash said.
