External Affairs Minister of India S. Jaishankar was recently visiting Pakistan for the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) conference. A big lie was spread about him by the Pakistani media during a conference held in Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan. It was said that in Islamabad Indian Foreign Minister S. Jaishankar has spoken to Pakistan’s foreign minister about cricket diplomacy. But, the Indian media has denied such things citing its sources. The Indian government has not allowed Team India to travel to Pakistan for almost 17 years due to terrorist incidents and bad relations. This decision of the Government of India has also become an obstacle in the way of the Champions Trophy.
