US President Barack Obama has invited Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Pakistani counterpart Nawaz Sharif to attend the Nuclear Security Summit from March 31 to April 1 next year in Washington.

According to The Express Tribune, there has been no official announcement regarding the invitation as yet.

The conference would offer the first planned opportunity of 2016 to carry forward bilateral ties between India and Pakistan which have seen some icy lows and relative heights this year.

The fourth Nuclear Security Summit had been announced by Obama during the previous edition of the moot in 2014.
