Maleeha Lodhi meets Imran at Banigala
62
Pakistan's Permanent Representative to the United Nations Maleeha Lodhi met Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf Chairman (PTI) Imran Khan at his Banigala residence on Sunday.
The UN representative congratulated the PTI chief on his party's performance in the recent elections.
Apart from Lodhi, the Japanese ambassador, the British envoy and other foreign dignitaries have also visited the PTI chief in recent days.
The envoys of China, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates have all called on the PTI chairman since his party emerged as the winner of the July 25 polls.
Earlier, India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi had also telephoned Imran Khan to congratulate him over his party's victory, saying that India was "ready to enter a new era of relations with Pakistan", according to a PTI statement.

Ms. Lodhi should call it a day now. There are capable career diplomats in Pakistan who are trained and can do a better job than her and her likes. Political appointees like Ms. Lodhi destroy institutions.
Mr. Imran Khan, sticking to his promises of a new Pakistan should let institutions like the Foreign Office strengthen. #No to Political Appointees

Nice but what was discussed? Did Kaptan give her a charge? Was it simply a meet and greet meeting? Your news kept me wanting more.

Please PM, we need some actual intelligent people in our diplomatic sector. So far the entire PMLN-PPP cabinets have been total failures. I'm sorry to say, but Ms. Lodhi wasn't a great success either.

Bani gala has been declared as the defacto office of the prime minister. This should change in the future as prime minister house must be a neutral place rather than belonging to one person and to one party only.

In my view, Maleeha Lodi is a good diplomat, and needs to be more strong on country's foreign policies. This is only possible when a policy is established and correct people are placed in the UN, USA, UK, Russia, China, India and other countries to represent Pakistan's views and policies. I am optimistic, under Imran Khan's leadership, Pakistan's image will be improved for the betterment of the nation!
