Maldives rakes up Indo-Pak ties at SAARC Summit


In unusual comments at the SAARC forum, President Mohamed Nasheed today talked about strained relations between India and Pakistan, saying that he hoped that tomorrow's meeting between the two countries' prime ministers will lead to resolution of their differences.

Addressing the 16th SAARC Summit, President Mohamed Nasheed said he hopes that leaders of India and Pakistan will have effective conversation and resolve their differences.

Nasheed, who spoke extempore, said he hoped that the "conversation will lead to greater dialogue between India and Pakistan."

The remarks came as a surprise as normally bilateral issues and relations are not raked up in the multilateral forum of SAARC.

Prime minister Manmohan Singh is meeting his Pakistani counterpart Yousuf Raza Gilani tomorrow.

The comments also reflected the common feeling that the relations between India and Pakistan mostly overshadow SAARC meetings.

Mohamed Ameen's services to the nation

When Mohamed Ameen returned to Male' after studying abroad there was a committee drafting a constitution and king Shamsudeen appointed him, by royal letter, to that group. He was its youngest and most intelligent member. After numerous difficulties, the constitution was completed and it was formally approved on Thursday 23 Shauban 1351 (22 December 1932). Acting under the constitution, the king gave the Minister for Trade portfolio to Mohamed Ameen, and he performed well in accordance with the practices of the time. Shortly after the adoption of the constitution, a serious dispute began between the Borah traders and the government. The Borahs ceased trading, locked up their shops and occupied their mosque and their three shop-houses. The government declared martial law. The person in charge was chief minister Mohamed Fareed Didi, who was also minister of the askariya (militia). On the second day of martial law, a small protest was organised.
