New Delhi: External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj on Saturday slammed Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi for his “googly” remark and said it exposed the real face of Pakistan which has no respect for Sikh sentiments. Qureshi had said on Thursday that Pakistan Prime Minister Khan bowled a "googly" to ensure Indian government's presence at the groundbreaking ceremony of the landmark Kartarpur Corridor.
His statement came a day after Sushma Swaraj ruled out any possibility of recommencement of bilateral talks with Pakistan unless it stops cross-border terror activities against India.

She further said: "Let me explain to you that we were not trapped by your 'googlies'. Our two Sikh Ministers went to Kartarpur Sahib to offer prayers in the Holy Gurudwara".
