" Pakistan deviated from the agenda signed by the Prime Ministers of both the countries in Ufa, which said the talks would be focused on terror between the NSAs of both the countries," Singh told media.
"It is unfortunate that Pak has called off talks, India wanted to have talks," he added.
He pointed out that it was decided in Ufa that the dialogues will take place bilaterally and won't involve a third party.
US on Sunday said it was "disappointed" that the proposed talks between the National Security Advisors of India and Pakistan has been called off.
"We are disappointed the talks will not happen this weekend and encourage India and Pakistan to resume formal dialogue soon," State Department spokesman John Kirby told PTI.
The spokesperson, however, said the "constructive" interaction between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif in Ufa, Russia, was encouraging.
"We were encouraged by the constructive interaction between the leaders of India and Pakistan earlier this year at Ufa, particularly the announcement of dialogue between the countries' National Security Advisors," Kirby said.
