India: New Chapter in Pakistan Relations​

By AP / KRISHAN FRANCIS​

(ADDU, Maldives) — Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said Thursday that India and rival Pakistan needed to stop wasting time trading barbs and open a new chapter in their relationship.

Singh's comments came amid signs of warming ties between the two nuclear armed nations, which have fought three wars since gaining independence from Britain.(See more on trade normalization between India and Pakistan.)

The two nations decided earlier this year to restart wide-ranging peace talks. Last month, Pakistan quickly returned an Indian helicopter and its crew that had strayed across the tense border, and last week Pakistan announced it would normalize trade with India.

Singh and Pakistani Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani met for about an hour Thursday on the sidelines of a South Asia regional summit to further discuss how to ease tensions between their nations.

Singh praised Gilani as a man of peace and said the two neighbors needed to understand that their destinies are interlinked.

"The time has come to write a new chapter in the history of our relationship," he said, standing beside Gilani.

In the first place, India Pakistan relations are not destined together. Second, I am not able understand how Singh can describe Gilani a man of peace. It seems Singh has forgot 26/11

Unlike 26/11 that was orchestrated from across the border, Samjhota incident didn't happened in Pakistan and there lies the difference
