meeting with Zardari at the Prime Minister’s Race Course road residence here.
“The leaders discussed the problem of terrorism which is a major issue by which the Indian people will judge progress in bilateral relationship,” Foreign Secretary Ranjan Mathai told reporters after the meeting.
Singh said it was “imperative” to bring the perpetrators of Mumbai attacks to justice and prevent activities aimed against India from Pakistani soil, according to the official.
“In this context, the prime minister also mentioned the activities of Hafiz Saeed (the founder of banned terror outfit Lashkar-e-Toiba),” Mathai said.
On the Saeed issue, Zardari said that the matter needed to be discussed further between the two governments, when home secretaries of the two sides were to meet shortly.
Zardari mentioned the need for the two sides to discuss Sir Creek river problem, Siachen and Kashmir issues.
“Both felt that we need to move forward step-by-step,” the foreign secretary said.
Zardari arrived here Sunday for a private visit during which he would also visit a Muslim holy shrine in the western Indian city of Ajmer. — Enditem.
