SRINIGAR: Despite the tone and tenor of its recent actions, Indian Home Minister Rajnath Singh said on Thursday that his country desired cordial relations with Pakistan, but asked Islamabad “to change its approach” for this to happen.

“I want to say from the depth of my heart that we want good and friendly relations with Pakistan. It is our policy to have cordial relations with all our neighbouring countries, including Pakistan,” Singh told reporters on the concluding day of his two-day visit to Indian Kashmir.

Sindh said Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi had invited his Pakistani counterpart Nawaz Sharif to attend his swearing-in ceremony in May 2014 to “demonstrate India’s urge for peaceful and normal relations with that country.”

“We made our intentions clear on the day of the oath-taking ceremony (of Modi). If it was not our intention to improve relations with Pakistan, perhaps our prime minister would not have invited Sharif,” he explained.

Referring to former Indian prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s comment on Pakistan that “friends change, but neighbours don’t,” Singh said, “We also believe in that. There will be no let up in our efforts but Pakistan will have to think about it (too). It takes two hands to clap.”

Foreign Secretary Aizaz Chaudhry last month said Pakistan wanted to have a “normal” relationship with India, for which there is also a political consensus in the country, but Islamabad’s efforts were not being reciprocated by New Delhi.

Chaudhry said it was the Indian government, and not Pakistan, which had put a stop to the Indo-Pak dialogue.

In the recent weeks, both the countries have accused each other of sponsoring terrorism with a war of words continuing from both sides.

Its lip service so they sneak their way into SCO and other regional bodies and make life difficult for everyone.

China would be incredibly stupid allowing them in, they will ensure nothing goes to plan.

They are pure Uncle Sam stooges. Chutiyas need to be kept at arms length.
 
We do not trust each other..... the best possible solution can be......
Indo-Pak relationship is just like the relationship between Harry Potter and Lord Voldemort. Either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives :D :D :D

Modi was never a hawk. He also wants cordial relations with Pakistan as most do. However, what he said in an interview earlier was that it would not be possible for talks to go ahead until Pakistan stops the proxy war unleashed against India since the past three decades. You can't talk with a gun pointed at your head! But Track II diplomacy is still alive and kicking.

However, the question is: Does the Pak Army want peace? No! It needs an adversary to stay relevant in society. Otherwise they would be out of business. Defence budgets would be slashed and the goodies would then be hard to come by! Their status would drop a few notches. Losing the power they command at present is obviously unacceptable. And the present lame duck Pak government is just a puppet on a string controlled in good measure by the Establishment.

Since the Army calls the shots in Pakistan, any talks will need to include them too. Otherwise it's just a waste of time as the civil dispensation cannot take decisions without the Army's 'approval'.

Their women are obsessed with our men.

Their men are obsessed with our men and women.

They are obsessed with our relations with China and Afghanistan.

They are obsessed over any positive press Pakistan receives.

A myopic nation with severe mental problems produced from decades of self mutilation in Kashmir and seeing Pakistani flags in their territory.
