Pakistani NSA Moeed Yusuf also attended this meeting. He had earlier said that there is no possibility of a bilateral meeting with his Indian counterpart on the sidelines of the SCO meeting.

In February, India and Pakistan Military Commanders agreed to strictly adhere to the 2003 ceasefire agreement.
