| [DAWN] India's new Prime Minister Narendra Modi has accepted an invitation by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif ... served two non-consecutive terms as prime minister, heads the Pakistain Moslem League (Nawaz). Noted for his spectacular corruption, the 1998 Pak nuclear test, border war with India, and for being tossed by General Musharraf... to visit Pakistain, Indian Foreign Secretary Sujatha Singh told news hounds in New Delhi on Tuesday. "All SAARC leaders invited the [Indian] PM to visit. He accepted. The dates have to be worked out," Indian media quoted Singh as saying. Sharif is in India on a two-day visit to attend the inauguration ceremony of India's new prime minister, Narendra Modi, with whom he had a "warm and cordial" bilateral meeting, he said. "We agreed that our meeting in New Delhi should be a historic opportunity for both our countries," he told news hounds. "This provides us the opportunity of meeting the hopes and aspirations of our peoples that we will succeed in turning a new page in our relations." He said that both men shared a common goal of economic development which could not be achieved without "peace and stability in the region." Sharif said that top diplomats from both countries would meet soon to advance peace talks that have moved fitfully because of political tensions between the neighbours. "We also agreed that the two foreign secretaries would be meeting soon to review and carry forward our bilateral agenda in the spirit of our meeting today." |
