Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Saturday left for home wrapping up a week-long visit to France and the United States where he held crucial talks with top world leaders including Presidents George W Bush and Jacques Chirac.

Dr Singh also held discussions with Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly.

Civilian nuclear energy cooperation and UN reforms had topped the agenda of Dr Singh's talks with Chirac while the prime minister discussed with Bush the Indo-US nuclear deal and the mounting confrontation between Iran and the US over Tehran's controversial nuclear programme.
