Only one day after Narendra Modi took the oath of office as India’s prime minister for the third time, the leaders of Pakistan and India have greeted and expressed gratitude to one another.

In tweets on social media, Shehbaz Sharif, the prime minister of Pakistan, and his elder brother, Nawaz Sharif, the former prime minister three times, congratulated Modi within hours of one another. In reaction to the election results from across the border, Pakistan initially took this action.

“The people’s faith in your leadership is demonstrated by your party’s recent electoral win. Nawaz wrote in one post, “Let us replace hate with hope and seize the opportunity to shape the destiny of the two billion people of South Asia.”

“Indian people always stood for peace, security, and progressive ideas,” Modi retorted. Our first objective will always be to advance our people’s security and well-being.

In his first coalition government, Modi is reliant on regional parties for support, having lost his outright majority after winning a third term that broke records.

neighboring and opposing nuclear-armed parties The disputed Kashmir area in the Himalayas has been the focus of two of India and Pakistan’s three wars.

The two have not spoken since India divided the state of Jammu and Kashmir into two federally controlled territories in 2019 and revoked the territory’s special status.

India’s airstrikes inside Pakistan in 2019 against what it claimed to be a terrorist haven brought them closer to yet another war.

For Sunday’s formal opening at the president’s residence, Rashtrapati Bhavan, in New Delhi, leaders of seven neighboring countries were invited, but Sharif was left out.

“Thank you @cmshehbaz for your good wishes,” Modi replied on X a few hours after Shehbaz Sharif had sent him well wishes.

A strong advocate of peace with India has always been the elder Sharif. Still, many believe that peace negotiations between the two parties are unlikely to occur very soon.
