India's Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee is due to hold talks with security officials in the disputed region of Kashmir, as fears grow that an all-out war with Pakistan is imminent. Mr Vajpayee is on the last day of his visit to Indian-controlled Kashmir where on Wednesday he delivered a belligerent speech to frontline troops.
