Pakistan's Foreign Affairs Adviser Sartaj Aziz has been summoned by the Senate chairman to brief lawmakers on Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's surprise visit to the country and Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Raheel Sharif's trip to Afghanistan.

According to The Express Tribune, Senator Raza Rabbani asked Aziz to take lawmakers into confidence on Modi's visit after the issue was raised by Pakistan Peoples Party's (PPP) Sehar Kamran.

Welcoming the visit, Rabbani said the meeting could have taken place at the Governor House instead of Jati Umra.

Earlier, PPP Senator Farhatullah Babar had suggested the Senate should raise its voice against the overstepping of institutions into other domains.
