Recent developments, according to the government source, also indicate that both India and Pakistan are trying to bridge distances.
India and Pakistan, south Asian neighbours and archrivals, were among the countries that abstained on a UN resolution that deplored Russia's actions in Ukraine. The two countries are trying to work out their differences, government sources indicate.
"Ceasefire between the two countries (India and Pakistan) has sustained for over a year now. It's a good indicator that both countries are wanting to walk together if not work together," a senior functionary in the government said.
Recent developments, according to the functionary, also indicate that both India and Pakistan are trying to bridge distances. "India is examining Pakistan requests beyond Indus Water Treaty provisions on flood flows as a gesture of goodwill," he added.
India has been providing information to Pakistan on extraordinary discharges of water from reservoirs and flood flows every year as mandated in Indus Water Treaty but this year it has agreed to provide information beyond treaty provisions in recent talks held in Islamabad.
