Saarc and a spy

LAHORE: This is with reference to your lead story of April 28 concerning the arrest in India of an Indian diplomat posted to Islamabad on charges of spying for Pakistan. This has happened just at about the time that a Saarc summit is taking place in Bhutan. The timing seems a bit odd and many people will think that is this a plan by the hawks in India to sabotage the meeting between the two prime ministers? Every poor Indian as well as Pakistani wants the peace process to resume.

Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is an intellectual, an economic expert and a good politician. He is well aware of the prevailing miserable economic condition of the people of both countries. I hope and pray that he will show his wisdom and not avoid the path to peace.
