“Excellency, India has, through dialogue, consistently endeavoured to build a relationship of durable peace, stability and co-operative friendship with Pakistan Our common enemy is poverty. For the welfare of our people, there is no other recourse but a pursuit of the path of reconciliation, in engaging of productive dialogue and by building trust and confidence. I invite you to walk this high road with us.

“When I visited Lahore in February 1999,with the objective of beginning a new chapter in our bilateral relations, I had recorded at Minar-e-Pakistan that a stable, secure and prosperous Pakistan is in India's interest. That remains our conviction.

“We have to pick up the threads again, including reviewing the composite dialogue so that we can put in place a stable structure of cooperation and address all outstanding issues including J&K.

“I have the pleasure to extend a most cordial invitation to Begum Musharraf and you to visit India at your early convenience.

“Please accept, Excellency, the assurance of my highest consideration”.
