SAARC summit: Nepal will push India, Pakistan to talk

Foreign Minister Mahendra Bahadur Pandey said Monday that Nepal will push India and Pakistan to hold talks on the sidelines of the SAARC summit, Economic Times reported. To end the deadlock between India and Pakistan, “we are trying to crack the nut”, he said in a television interview without divulging details. Though official talks between India and Pakistan are still uncertain, Nepal is likely to push the two regional leaders to one table during the retreat organised at Dhulikhel, a popular hill station near Kathmandu. “The talks are going to be held in a very free and frank manner to end mutual suspicion,” Pandey said during a regular press briefing.
