Modi put his hand on Sharif's arm as the two leaders looked at
cameras with a long handshake even as they exchanged a few sentences.
Loud applause greeted this apparent thaw which was in contrast to the
two leaders ignoring each other on Wednesday.
"The two leaders exchanged pleasantries when they met for the first
time after arriving here," External Affairs Ministry Spokesperson Syed
Akbaruddin said.
The leaders gathered at Dhulikhel in Kavre district, 30 km east of the Nepalese capital, for the traditional SAARC retreat on the concluding day of the two-day summit.
At the retreat, they held private, unofficial talks in a relaxed and more informal atmosphere.
Sources said all the leaders met in informal settings and talked about various regional issues.
There was no discussion on bilateral issues, they said.
The SAARC Foreign Ministers, including External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj and Pakistan Prime Minister's Advisor on Foreign Affairs and National Security Sartaj Aziz, were also present at the retreat.
