KATHMANDU (Reuters) - South Asian nations will sign a deal on Thursday to create a seamless electricity grid, Nepal's foreign minister said, signalling an agreement to salvage a regional summit that had been overshadowed by hostilities between India and Pakistan.

"Yes the electricity agreement will be signed," Foreign Minister Mahendra Bahadur Pandey told Reuters.
