India and Pakistan's Indus Commissioners are set to meet on 23-24 March in New Delhi for the annual meeting of the Permanent Indus Commission (PIC), reports Indian Express.
The Indian Delegation for the meeting will be led by Commissioner (Indus) Pradeep Kumar Saxena who said, "We are committed towards full utilisation of India’s rights under the treaty and believe in amicable solution of issues through discussion."
The two sides were also scheduled to hold a meeting in March last year. The same was however cancelled in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
India had proposed to hold the meeting virtually but Pakistan had insisted on holding the talks at the Attari check post. The request was however declined by India as it was not conducive to hold the meeting at the Attari Joint Check Post because of the pandemic.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
