Mr Aziz also expressed hope that a Pakistani Special Investigation Team (SIT) would be able to visit India soon to carry forward the probe into the attack on the Pathankot airbase in January.
“Don’t worry. The main purpose of the meeting, of course, is to hand over the invitation for the Saarc Summit. And then anything she wants to discuss, we will discuss,” he told reporters here as he arrived for the 37th Saarc Council of Ministers Meeting. Asked if he was optimistic about a positive outcome of his meeting with Ms Swaraj, Mr Aziz said.
