India on Monday said it would explore all options to normalise relations with Pakistan and its intentions are “very transparent” in this direction.

“With Pakistan, speculation will never stop and I wouldn’t like to enlist myself in the club of speculators. All I can convey to you is that India’s intentions are very honest, India’s intentions are very transparent,” External Affairs Minister S. M. Krishna told reporters in Nay Pyi Taw.

“Dr. Manmohan Singh wants good relationship, the people of India want good relationship with Pakistan and we certainly will make every effort from our side to see that normalisation of relationship as good neighbours could be possible and we will explore all options to do that”, he said.

His remarks came a few days after India and Pakistan failed to sign a liberalised visa agreement, agreed on between Dr. Singh and President Asif Ali Zardari in April.

India expressed disappointment over it saying it had gone fully prepared to the Home Secretary-level meeting in Islamabad where the visa deal was to be signed last week.

The Indian govt is comprised of complete and utter fools. Why trust a terrorist country like Pakistan. They have nefarious designs towards India, always targeting terror at us while we hold out a hand to them. The Mumbai mastermind is free to plan more terror activities and recruit more jihadis while India 'bleats' about getting him arrested. This will never happen until India talks and acts tough.
