Malik thanks Singh, Chidambaram for 'creating positivity'

Islamabad, Jul 22 (PTI) In the midst of controversy over
the remarks of Home Secretary G K Pillai on Pakistan, Interior
Minister Rehman Malik Thursday thanked Indian Prime Minister
Manmohan Singh and his Indian counterpart P Chidambaram for
"creating positivity."

In a message posted on the social networking website
Twitter, Malik said: "We appreciate PM India and Home Minister
India for advising their aides not to give negative statements
against Pakistan. Thanks for creating positivity."
Malik was apparently referring to the criticism within
India over the timing of Pillai's remarks that David Headley
had revealed to interrogators that ISI and JuD chief Hafiz
Mohd Saeed had played a "much more significant role" in the
Mumbai attacks; and appointment of a spokesperson in the Home
Ministry in Delhi.
Pillai had made the remarks on the eve of the Indo-Pak
Foreign Ministers' meeting here on July 15.
Malik had earlier on Sunday tweeted about the Indo-Pak
ties, saying the talks between the two countries should not be
judged "mathematically like 2+2=4" but should be seen as a
"positive step".
"It is time for exchange of hearts. Let us sow seeds of
love and peace, so that future generations have only the
option to reap love, and noting but love....Let us save our
future generations from the disease of hate and terrorism,"
Malik, who has 3,678 followers, had said. PTI KIM
