Sharif: Pakistan may consider visa-free regime for Indians

New Delhi: The Pakistan government is likely to consider a visa-free regime for Indians who want to visit that country, former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has indicated.

Mr. Sharif, whose party PML (N) is in the ruling coalition with the Pakistan People’s Party, told Prabhu Chawla in an interview to Aaj Tak’s “seedhi baat” programme that Pakistan should unilaterally abolish the mandatory visia requirement for Indians who wanted to visit Pakistan whether India reciprocated or not. Mr. Sharif refuted allegations of Pakistan’s involvement in harbouring terrorism. — PTI
