India to boycott Commonwealth Parliamentary Union meet in Pakistan

No Pakistan invite to Jammu and Kashmir Speaker

New Delhi: In another provocation by Pakistan that ended in it being resoundingly snubbed, India on Friday said it would boycott a Commonwealth Parliamentary Union (CPU) meeting in Islamabad from September 30 to October 8 in protest against Pakistan for not inviting the Speaker of the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly if Islamabad does not reverse its decision.

India is also expected to pressure the London-based Commonwealth Parliamentary Association (CPA) Secretariat to change the meeting venue if it wants Indian participation in case Pakistan does not relent on its stand on not inviting Jammu and Kashmir Speaker.
