India-Pak. goodwill

An abundance of goodwill has been created among the people of India and Pakistan. Common sense tells us that happiness lies in maintaining mutual friendship. Let our leaders keep in mind all this when they meet for a dialogue. They should be willing to make compromises.

There is no realistic alternative for the two South Asian neighbours except to try to live in peace. Better economic relations will be productive for India and much more for Pakistan.

Pervez Musharraf demands that the Kashmir issue is settled first. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh says the LoC cannot be redrawn. The Hurriyat says it will talk to Pakistan first. The Srinagar-Muzaffarabad bus service is introduced. The world appreciates the peace moves between India and Pakistan. The question is: what will be the final result?

R. Ganesan,

The present bonhomie between India and Pakistan is welcome but New Delhi should not abandon caution. Instances such as the bus to Lahore and the subsequent Kargil conflict should not be forgotten.

S.P. Sharma,
Mumbai
