New Delhi, April 26: Pakistan has proposed to India two sets of dates – last week of May and first week of June – for holding a meeting of the Joint Working Group to carry forward the process of having a relaxed visa regime.
A communication from Pakistan, proposing the two sets of dates, was received last week and a decision will be taken by the government soon.
“We are examining which date will be feasible for us to hold the meeting. We will take a decision on it soon and accordingly convey it to Pakistan,” an official said.
During the India-Pakistan Home Secretary-level talks last month, both sides agreed to set up a Joint Working Group to examine the modalities for streamlining the visa procedure/modalities and for giving a final shape to revision of the Bilateral Visa Agreement.
“The next meeting will carry forward the whole process,” the official said.
