Pakistan is waiting for the new Indian government's response for holding talks on MFN/NDMA status.
Addressing a press conference, Commerce Minister Engineer Khurram Dastgir Khan said Pakistan is ready and waiting for Indian government's indication for holding talks for Non-Discriminatory Market Access issue.
He said that the new Indian Government has yet to assume charge and Pakistan will have to see who will be their commerce and textile minister.
