Keep the door ajar: Abdul Basit to India

Abdul Basit also talked about his meeting with India’s NSA Ajit Doval

New Delhi: Pakistan on Saturday made a strong pitch for normalisation of ties with India after last month’s “political setback” and said in diplomacy one should keep or leave the “door ajar” so that whatever was possible could be achieved. The remarks were made by Pakistan High Commissioner Abdul Basit here, days after external affairs minister Sushma Swaraj said there was no “full stop” in diplomacy while replying on the future strategy towards talks with Pakistan. Addressing a meet of businessmen from India and Pakistan, Mr Basit also talked about his meeting with India’s NSA Ajit Doval earlier in the day and said both agreed that destinies of both the nations are inter-linked.
