Sushma visit to reinvigorate India, Pakistan ties: Daily
Islamabad: India’s External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj’s visit to Pakistan will revive and reinvigorate ties between New Delhi and Islamabad, said a leading Pakistani daily which noted that both countries “seem prepared to learn from the mistakes and choices of the recent past”.
An editorial “India-Pakistan progress” in the Dawn on Tuesday said that first the prime ministers of Pakistan and India exchanged a few words in Paris; then their national security advisers and foreign secretaries held a joint meeting in Bangkok; and now, Sushma Swaraj will arrive in Islamabad for a regional security conference.
“What seemed impossible just weeks ago, has turned into a remarkable, almost unprecedented round of diplomacy at the very highest levels.
“The meetings must, first and foremost, be welcomed by every right-thinking Indian and Pakistani. Not talking to each other should be an unacceptable state of affairs when it comes to the two South Asian neighbours,” it said.
The daily observed that “prompted by Indian intransigence and partly reinforced by Pakistani reluctance, diplomatic engagement had eluded the two countries”.
“Instead, dangerous brinksmanship by both sides pushed the relationship towards a new low. Now, and not a moment too soon, the relationship seems set to be revived and reinvigorated. And an old truth stands validated: without a strong and bold leadership, the India-Pakistan relationship will forever remain hostage to old suspicions and hostilities.”
Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and his Indian counterpart Narendra Modi appear willing to try again. “What is particularly encouraging is that both sides seem prepared to learn from the mistakes and choices of the recent past.”
The daily noted that the Ufa agreement called for a meeting between the NSAs in New Delhi, but that became untenable. “Choosing a neutral venue like Bangkok allowed both sides to avoid public embarrassment.”
“…prior secrecy and the post-meeting public statement helped achieve several things: they prevented hawks on either side from scuttling the meeting; presumably allowed both sides to talk about substantive issues instead of indulging in rhetoric for domestic political consumption; and established a precedent for further meetings,” it added.
The editorial went on to say that the inclusion of references to terrorism as well as Jammu and Kashmir will presumably have satisfied both sides.
“Tensions along the Working Boundary and LoC are still unacceptably high and there has to be some major movement to re-establish both sidesÂ’ commitment to upholding the January 2003 ceasefire.”
Sushma SwarajÂ’s visit to Islamabad “could set the stage for a rather positive quid pro quo”.
It then asked: “The gesture that India, and the world, is seeking from Pakistan?”
“Expediting the Mumbai attack-related trials. It is a scandal that the trials in the Rawalpindi anti-terrorism court have ground to a halt. Pakistan needs to do more on that front.”
Lucknow: Vishal Singh, a renowned social worker from Lucknow, also known as Foodman, has once again made India proud. He was honored by the Happy Hands Gloves Cooperative Limited Company in Korathai, Thailand, for his work with the Hunger Free World Mission.

The mission focuses on helping families of terminally ill patients in hospitals by providing food and shelter. It also works to fulfill essential needs like education, jobs, and care for the elderly.
For the last 16 years, the Vijay Sri Foundation has been providing free services, benefiting thousands of people. Vishal Singh highlighted that the mission aims to gain global recognition like other organizations such as WHO, WWF, and Red Cross, which work for social causes.
During this meeting, Vishal Singh was appointed as the Chairman of the Hunger Free World Mission by representatives from various countries. They also discussed holding regular meetings in different countries to push the mission forward.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Vishal Singh and his team worked tirelessly to provide food and help to the needy, including starving children, elderly citizens, and pregnant women. Despite contracting the virus himself, he continued to assist others after his recovery. He even created a life-saving oxygen regulator using household items, which was praised by doctors both in India and abroad.
In his address at the meeting, Vishal Singh spoke about his mission to create a hunger-free world. He pointed out that India’s large population, along with issues like unemployment and poverty, has caused the country to fall on the Hunger Index. He urged people to contribute just one handful of grains daily to help create a hunger-free world.
He concluded by saying that through social participation, we can empower the people around us, meet their basic needs, and work together to build a stronger, more prosperous, and developed society.
