Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif's visit to New Delhi was a foregone conclusion from the moment the invitation was received, and it was a wise decision. The "to go or not to go" drama was staged to transfer the blame on others if any untoward repercussions arose after the visit. The one-to-one meeting between the prime ministers, cleverly thrown in to give the yatra some semblance of a business tour, is unlikely to yield anything. It would be too much to expect from only a day-old prime minister of India, and on the top of it from a person like Modi, to take some reconciliatory position on Kashmir.
