Hamburg, Jul 9 (PTI): As G20 leaders continued their Summit discussions for the second day here today, US President Donald Trump today walked up to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi for "an impromptu interaction".

    India should be extra cautious while dealing with U.S. Which ever country they showed their interest to establish ties, have seen destruction. Use and throw is their policy. We are surrounded by our neighbors who have fought wars with us. It doesn't mean that we can trust far away countries. This is my feeling. May be I am wrong also. Pray that all goes well with our relation with all countries including USA.
