Pakistan Day: Imran shares Modi’s peace message, calls for dialogue on Kashmir

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday greeted his Pakistani counterpart Imran Khan ahead of Pakistan Day as both countries emphasised peace and prosperity for the region.

Khan in a tweet, shared the message he received from Modi.


While welcoming Modi’s message Khan, once again called for dialogue between both countries, especially on the ‘central issue of Kashmir’.


The goodwill messages came against the backdrop of recent escalation of tensions between the two countries following an attack on Indian security forces in Kashmir’s Pulwama district. The events in the last week of February took the two arch-rival neighbours closer to war than any of the standoffs between them over the past decade.
