She said, India's engagement is focussed on greater connectivity, stronger cooperation and broader contacts.<br/><br/> Ms Swaraj said, the approach is consultative, non-reciprocal and outcome-oriented. As a result of this, significant progress has been registered in New Delhi's relations with the neighbour.
