Are India and Pakistan quietly preparing to restart dialogue?
India and Pakistan may be on the verge of restarting dialogue, despite public tensions. Influential figures in India, including a leader from the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, have suggested exploring talks with Pakistan. While the Modi government has not officially responded, there are indications that some factions within India are advocating for renewed engagement.
- ▪Dattatreya Hosabale, a leader of the RSS, called for dialogue with Pakistan, contrasting with Modi's stance.
- ▪The Modi government has yet to respond officially to calls for talks, but some Indian voices support Hosabale's position.
- ▪Analysts suggest that while there is a rationale for diplomatic re-engagement, full-fledged dialogue will be challenging.
