ISLAMABAD – Minister for Information and Broadcasting, Chaudhry Fawad Hussain says Pakistan is ready to hold talks with the new Indian leadership, whatever it may, for normalization of bilateral relations and to move things forward.
In an interview with Hindustan Times, the Minister said Pakistani leadership believes that there will be no forward movement until election process in India is completed.
He said diplomatic channels that were used to reduce tensions in the aftermath of the Pulwama terror attack are remained operational, albeit in the backdrop.
Fawad Chaudhry said Islamabad is looking towards engaging with the new dispensation in New Delhi after the completion of the Indian elections.
He said it is obvious that the atmosphere that was developed post-Pulwama and the tensions are not in the interests of the people or the region. The Minister said the way in which a war frenzy has been created in India , especially in the media, that leads to fears but things are moving on.
However, he contended that the post-Pulwama tensions had not been adequately addressed on the Indian side.
