This is just the beginning.

Pakistan would benefit so much if it decided to improve relations with India.

Positive development. More such steps are necessary to cement Indo-Pak relations. People to people contact is very important if we are to overcome the stereotypes that exist in both nations.

Ek hath le ek hath de ... if Pakistanis somehow think everything u get is something u deserve ...then no one can be more delusional.

IF u got something better to give then put it on the table...harming pakistan interests isn't a game new to us.
Well just continue if no other favorable option is available.

if u want change, flexibility and wisdom (on both sides) is necessary.

In case you were not taught to read the map, lemme remind you that there is a country, adjacent to Pakistan. They call it Iran.

Oh and we have a pretty good relationship with them.
