The Foreign Office of Pakistan summoned India's acting Deputy High Commissioner Mr. Raghuram, on Friday, to express Islamabad's concern over the cancellation of operation of Samjhauta Express on October 8, 2015.
A press release issued by the Pakistan Foreign Office said that Dr. Mohammad Faisal, the Director General (South Asia), told Mr. Raghuram during their meeting that the cancellation had caused inconvenience to more than 200 passengers from Pakistan and India.
