Pak President, PM greet India on R-Day

Pakistan’s President Mamnoon Hussain and Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif today greeted their Indian counterparts on India’s 67th Republic Day, wishing the country “stability” and “prosperity”.

“President and PM of Pakistan greeted Indian counterparts (President Pranab Mukherjee and Prime Minister Narendra Modi) on India’s 67th Republic Day, wishing India stability and prosperity,” a Pakistani government source said.

Meanwhile, the Republic Day was also celebrated at the Indian High Commission here with High Commissioner Gautam Bambawale unfurling the Indian tri-colour, an event attended by many top officials and Embassy staff.

Indo-Pak ties have recently witnessed many ups and downs after the decision to engage in a “Comprehensive Bilateral Dialogue”.

The India-Pakistan Foreign Secretary level talks, scheduled for January 15, were deferred in the wake of the Pathankot terror attack.
