New Delhi proposed seven new Confidence-Building Measures (CBMs) as Musharraf landed in Delhi for One Day International Cricket in Delhi. According to sources, Musharraf looks for genuine Indian concessions and India is proposing new CBMs

The proposed CBMs are:

* Reviving traditional communication and bus links like Kargil-Skardu and the ones in Poonch and Rajouri

* Allowing relatives on either sides to meet at several points on LoC, including Poonch, Mendhar, Suchetgarh, Uri and Tangdar

* Promoting and developing international trade across LoC

* Mechanism for permitting pilgrims on both sides to visit Sikh and Hindu temples and Muslim shrines, including Sharda temple, Pir Chinnasi, Gurudwara Chattipatshahi.

* Promoting cultural interaction and cooperation

* Joint promotion of tourism

* Exploring cooperation in the management of environment, forestry resources

Sources in Pakistan pointed out – where is the real thing? These all are great but who is going to break the ice?

India’s approach is to make Pakistan mellowed slowly with new sets of CBMs. Will it work?
