India has responded favorably to Pakistan’s offer of letting Kulbhushan Jadhav meet his wife, External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Raveesh Kumar told the media on Thursday.

However, the request for his mother to visit Pakistan to meet her son has been pending with the Pakistani government, Kumar said.

In our response, we have conveyed that the wife of Jadhav would like to travel with her mother-in-law for the meeting. We also sought sovereign guarantee from the government of Pakistan to ensure safety and security of both. Also, during their stay in Pakistan, they should not be questioned, harassed.

Kumar stated that India has also requested for an Indian diplomat from the High Commission in Pakistan to accompany them at all times and even visit them during the meetings.
