President A P J Abdul Kalam on Tuesday pitched for stronger India-Sudan ties.

Addressing the National Assembly of Sudan in Khartoum on the second day of his three-day visit to the largest African nation, he said, "Over the years, our nations have maintained cordial and friendly relations and have formed many institutional arrangements for widening the scope of our cooperation and collaboration.

"The time has thus arrived for our two nations to consolidate the developments made since Independence, and forge stronger bonds between planning and implementation institutions, public and private of both nations, for prosperity, happiness and freedom from insecurity.
