World Business Report

Available for over a year

India and Pakistan haven't had the best relations in recent decades. Before 1947 they were one country. After Partition, the state of Punjab was split in two. But things could be looking up. Local news has recently been dominated by the construction of a new international corridor that will allow Indian Sikhs to cross the border and visit a significant temple just inside Pakistan. There are also hopes that increased trade between the two sides will lift economic growth in Punjab. Indian High Commissioner to Pakistan Ajay Bisaria spoke to the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s Vivienne Nunis.
