Pakistan's Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif accepted on Saturday an invitation to attend the inauguration of Indian Prime Minister-designate Narendra Modi, a first between the nuclear-armed rivals that could help set the tone of engagement as the two leaders seek to improve troubled ties.
Sharif's decision comes in the face of stiff opposition from hardliners, including the Pakistan military, signaling that he was willing to expend political capital to try and match Modi's bold first step aimed at rebuilding ties.
"There will be a bilateral meeting on the sidelines between Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and Mr. Modi," said Mohyuddin Wani, the joint secretary of the Pakistan Prime Minister's office.
