ISLAMABAD: Minister of State for Information Marriyum Aurangzeb has contradicted part of a news item about Indian businessman Sajjan Jindal’s recent visit to Pakistan.

In a statement on Friday, she said there was no mention of Mr Jindal during the meeting between Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and Chief of the Army Staff Gen Qamar Javed Bajwa.

“Jindal is a friend of the prime minister and met him in his personal capacity. The news item that made rounds yesterday is incorrect,” she said.
