New Delhi, July 23 (IANS) India Friday expressed its concern over the ‘excessive’ US military aid to Pakistan and told a visiting top American military commander that the aid should only be used to fight terror.
Defence Minister A.K. Antony met Admiral Michael Mullen, chairman of the US joint chiefs of staff, here Friday and the two discussed the changing dynamics in the Afghanistan-Pakistan region, an official said.
