Pakistan once again welcomes Indian media for Kartarpur Corridor meeting: FO

Despite the fact that India did not issue visas to its journalists, Pakistan has once again invited the Indian media for coverage of the next Kartarpur Corridor meeting to be held on April 2 at Wagah.

Foreign Office Spokesperson Mohammad Faisal took to the official Twitter handle and welcomed the Indian media to cover the next meeting regarding the corridor. The spokesperson further said, "They [Indian media] may apply to Pakistan High Commission, New Delhi for visas."

For the previous meeting held on March 14 between the neighbors, India had refused to grant visas to Pakistani journalist to cover the event at Attari. Even though more than 30 of its journalists were issued visas by Pakistan, India had failed to reciprocate the gesture.

Regrettable that #India has not given visas to #Pakistani journalists for the #kartarpur meeting tomorrow. Hope the #PakKartarpurSpirit & meeting tomorrow will bring a change for the better for people of both countries (2/2)
