There should be no relationship with Pak till cross-border terrorism gets over,” he said.

Gambhir was campaigning for bypolls of 5 municipal wards in Delhi, which ended on Friday.

Main rivals AAP, BJP and Congress have claimed they will emerge victorious in the contest.

Voting for the municipal by-elections will be held on Sunday, results on March 3.
