External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj and Pakistan’s Foreign Affairs Advisor Sartaj Aziz will be holding bilateral talks for the first time after the Pathankot terror attack.

The terror strike on the Indian Air Force base in Pathankot on January 2 is likely to feature during the talks.

Sartaj Aziz is also expected to extend an invitation to Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the SAARC summit, to be hosted by Pakistan later this year.

Swaraj and Aziz were seen engaged in an intense discussion over dinner yesterday at the ongoing SAARC council of ministers meet in Pokhra.
