Hurriyat leaders attending Pak Day reception is not an issue: Abdul Basit

Pakistan envoy Abdul Basit, who invited Hardline separatist leader Syed Ali Geelani and Asiya Andrabi among others to attend 'Pakistan Day' function at its High Commission in Delhi today, said that this was not an issue at all as Hurriyat leaders had been attending the reception for years.
"Hurriyat leaders have been coming to our reception for years now, so we do not see this as an issue as far as Pakistan is concerned," Basit told ANI here.
Eyebrows have always risen whenever Pakistan has invited separatist leaders for different events sparking controversies.
Minister of State for External Affairs V K Singh had represented the government at the Pakistan National Day reception last year causing an uproar.
Last year, India had cancelled the foreign secretary level talks with Pakistan after Basit met Kashmiri separatists ahead of the planned meet.
