The Foreign Office on Friday described as incorrect a report that Pakistan has abandoned its proposal to open a consulate in Jinnah House, Mumbai. "Opening a consulate in Mumbai and leasing Jinnah House for the purpose is a longstanding decision by the Government of Pakistan.
However, the Indian Government has so far not acceded to our request about the leasing of Jinnah House," the spokesman said when his attention was drawn to the news item. The Spokesman emphasised that Pakistan maintains its interest in leasing Jinnah House for the proposed consulate.
