On board PM’s special flight, September 10
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh today virtually rejected the BJP’s demand that he should not meet Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf in Havana during the NAM Summit.

“We will cross the bridge when we come to it,” was his initial response when journalists accompanying him on his two-nation trip to Brazil and Cuba asked him about BJP President Rajnath Singh’s demand made in Dehradun today.

When a reporter referred to plans for the meeting between him and Musharraf on the margins of the two-day NAM Summit in Havana from September 15, Singh said “some efforts are being made.”

Asked specifically whether he would meet Musharraf or not, the Prime Minister said “hopefully”. — PTI
