Pakistani cleric and politician Tahir-ul-Qadri, who is presently in New Delhi to participate in a Sufi conference, today said the two Asian neighbours must hold dialogue for improved relations.
"Dialogue is extremely important for good relations between India and Pakistan, they should discuss all issues openly," Qadri told ANI here.
"Be it Pathankot or Mumbai attacks, Kashmir or other issues, there needs to be talks with an open heart," he added.
He further stressed on good relations between the people of both sides.
Responding to a poser on the Pakistani Special Investigation Team not visiting India even after so many days of the Pathankot terror attack, Qadri played safe and said certain issues need to be settled between the two governments.
Meanwhile, External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj will be meeting Pakistan Prime Minister's Advisor on Foreign Affairs Sartaj Aziz on the sidelines of the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) ministerial meeting in Kathmandu.
