Islamabad: Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani has invited Pakistan cricket team to the Prime Minister House and said that the team performed well and reached semi-final.
He said that the match provided opportunity to both the countries to come closure, adding that a new era of relations would be started between Indo-Paki relationships.
Earlier, Prime Minister Syed Yusaf Raza Gilani called on President Asif Ali Zardari at the President House on Thursday and briefed the President about his visit to India and his discussion with his Indian counterpart Manmohan Singh.
The President welcomed the meeting of the two leaders as a positive development for the region and hoped that it would provide further impetus to the efforts for meaningful dialogue between the two countries on all outstanding issues.
The President cheered both the teams for providing opportunity to witness a good game. Winning or losing the match was not really important, the President continued, what was important and appreciable was the sportsman spirit and effort of our boys in the field and the fact that the event provided an opportunity for the leadership to get together and also entertained people of the two neighbouring countries.
The meeting between the prime ministers of Pakistan and India in Mohali has proved to be a success, the Foreign Office said in a weekly briefing.
During his visit to Mohali, Prime Minister Gilani extended an invitation to Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Leader of the Congress Party Sonia Gandhi to visit Pakistan.
