Will try to meet Modi at UNGA, says Yunus

Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus has said he will try to meet Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly session in New York later this month. In an interview with the Press Trust of India, Yunus also revealed his plans to gather the heads of South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) nations for a symbolic photo opportunity.

"SAARC was formed for a great cause. It now exists only on paper and is not functioning. We have forgotten the name of SAARC; I am trying to revive the spirit of SAARC," Yunus said in the second part of the interview released on Friday.

The chief adviser said SAARC has not held a summit for a long time, and pointed out the potential benefits of renewed cooperation among member countries.
