Modi, Sharif in ‘brief casual chat’

PM Narendra Modi and his Pakistan counterpart Nawaz Sharif met on Monday on the sidelines of the UN climate summit, with India describing the encounter as a ‘brief exchange of courtesies’, but Pakistan terming it a ‘good’ meeting. 

Modi and Sharif had a brief meeting during which they warmly held hands before sitting down for a chat.

“Pakistan desires better ties with India. We want peace without compromising our dignity and honour. If both sides agree, then it’s not possible that the talks are not taken ahead” he said PTI
