The Indians portray themselves as laying down the law

Understand, of course, that this is the characterization that the Indians want out there ("leaked" for their own reasons,) and the real meeting may have been somewhat different in tone, but the description they want out there is pretty stiff and emasculating to the Pakistanis.
In a new sign of rising tensions between two nuclear-armed neighbors, Indian officials summoned Pakistan’s ambassador on Monday evening and told him that Pakistanis were responsible for the terrorist attacks here last week and that they must be punished.

....officials of India’s Foreign Ministry also suggested that the planners of the attacks were still at large in Pakistan, and that they expected “strong action would be taken” by Pakistan against those responsible for the violence, according to a statement released by the ministry.
