News Story: Pakistan envoy says peace process with India remains suspended

NEW DELHI, April 7 (Xinhua) -- The Pakistan High Commissioner in New Delhi Abdul Basit Thursday said peace process between India and Pakistan remains suspended.

"I think at present the peace process between India and Pakistan is suspended," Basit said addressing a press conference at the Foreign Correspondent's Club in the capital city.

The Pakistan envoy told media since there was no meeting scheduled between the foreign secretaries of the two countries, it remains to be seen whether India and Pakistan are able to commence the dialogue process.

High-level talks between the two nuclear neighbors were cancelled earlier this year following a deadly attack on Indian airbase at Pathankot in Punjab state. Since then no new date was finalized.
