Former ambassador and the Prime Minister's Special Envoy, Satinder K. Lambah, Monday met Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) chief and prime minister-designate Nawaz Sharif in Lahore.

Lambah's Lahore visit is a follow-up to the conversation between Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Sharif on May 12, after the latter's electoral win.

"Special Envoy Lambah conveyed to Mian Nawaz Sharif Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh's greetings and good wishes for his tenure as prime minister of Pakistan," said a statement issued by the Prime Minister's Office here.

Sharif "conveyed his deep appreciation for Prime Minister Singh's message. They took the opportunity to discuss ways to take the dialogue process forward to address all issues of concern to the two countries and to advance peace, friendship and cooperation between the two South Asian neighbours", the statement said.
