A Pakistani Joint Investigation Team (JIT) will arrive in India on 27 March to carry forward its probe into the Pathankot terror attack, External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj announced in Pokhara, on Thursday, after discussions with her Pakistani counterpart Sartaj Aziz.
Pathankot terror attack figured very high in the over 20-minute meeting between Swaraj and Aziz, the first political-level engagement between the two sides after the 2 January Pathankot terror strike. India has been pressing Pakistan to take action against the brazen assault on the key Indian Air Force base.
Swaraj also accepted Pakistan’s invitation for Prime Minister Narendra Modi to visit Islamabad for the SAARC Summit to be held on 9-10 November, this year.
Aziz said that he hoped that Modi and Sharif will meet in the US on 31 March, on the sidelines of the Nuclear Security Summit in Washington.
