Prime Minister Manmohan Singh today invoked youth power to pitch for greater understanding between India and China, saying it will make "our friendship a mighty force".
Singh underlined the need for strengthening people-to- people contacts as he interacted with a group of Chinese youth at his residence here.
"People-to-people exchanges are important in enhancing mutual understanding... Youth of the two country should be on the same wavelength. That will make our friendship a mighty force," he said during his interaction with the group.
Singh, who has been a strong votary of friendly relations with China, said, "In my talks with the Chinese leadership we all agreed and stressed that people-to-people contacts should be strengthened."
