              Islamabad: Pakistani 
              Interior Minister Rehman Malik, who reached New Delhi on a 
              goodwill visit to India, Friday invited Indian Prime Minister 
              Manmohan Singh for a visit to Pakistan.
 Stressing that Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari had already 
              invited Manmohan Singh to Pakistan, Malik said: "I would also 
              invite the Indian prime minister for a visit on behalf of our 
              leadership."
 
 Before his departure from the Benazir Bhutto International Airport 
              in the capital, Malik told the Associated Press of Pakistan (APP) 
              that his visit to India was a "victory of peace" and for those who 
              wanted to see improvement in bilateral relations.
 
 Malik said now people from both countries, especially senior 
              citizens, businessmen and journalists, could easily visit either 
              country to further enhance trade and cultural relations.
 
 He said the new visa accord was a gift from the leadership of both 
              countries to the coming generations.
 
 Peace and stability between the two countries would usher in a new 
              era of progress and development in the region, Malik told APP.
 
 The minister lauded the media for playing an important role in 
              bringing the two nations closer.
 
 Malik appreciated the role of the two high commissioners and said 
              they worked hard for the improvement of relations.
 
 He said that during his visit, he would give the message to the 
              entire world that Pakistan and India were peace loving nations 
              that believed in co-existence and wanted to live as peaceful 
              neighbours.
