Moving towards normalisation of ties with Pakistan: PM
By: Tupaki Desk | 1 Oct 2013 4:47 PM GMTPrime Minister Manmohan Singh said Tuesday that his talks with his Pakistani counterpart Nawaz Sharif were a sign of moving towards normalising relations.
Manmohan Singh, who met Sharif in New York on Sunday, also said that Sharif had said "all the right things" about India-Pakistan relations. He said he hoped and prayed that the Pakistani prime minister succeeds "in carrying out his mission".
"In a sense we are moving forward towards normalisation of our relations," he told reporters on board his special aircraft while returning from New York.
The Indian and Pakistani prime ministers met on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly session.
The meeting aimed at restarting the dialogue between the two nations in the wake of stalled talks over border killings and a terror attack in Jammu by Pakistani militants.
