Amidst the government’s efforts to end violence in Jammu and Kashmir, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Thursday said the all-party meeting to discuss a way out was a good beginning and hoped to build on it.

“We made a good beginning. I hope we will build on that better,” Singh told reporters here when asked whether there would be any further all-party meeting over the issue.

He described Wednesday’s meeting as “cordial and constructive”.

Singh did not take further questions on the sidelines of a book release function at his residence.
