"The invitation from Modi to SAARC heads, including Pakistan Prime Minister, and the nod given by Nawaz Sharif proves to be an opening to address certain substantive issues between the two countries," state secretary of CPI(M), M Y Tarigami said in a statement here.

Tarigami, however, said only future will tell how these gestures prove helpful to break the barriers of hostilities between the two countries.

"Hope these signals emanating from the two countries right now prove helpful in bridging the gap of uneasy relations in future," he said.

The area should be maintained as vacant natural land as was conceptualized by Le Corbusier and on the basis of which the entire city especially the capitol complex was planned, it said.
