Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar says Pakistan is all set to host twenty-third meeting of Council of the Heads of Government of the Member States of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.

He was talking to media along with Minister for Information and Broadcasting Attaullah Tarar in Islamabad this evening.

Ishaq Dar said all institutions and departments have made excellent arrangements with mutual cooperation for SCO summit being held from Tuesday to Wednesday in Islamabad.

He said the Chinese delegation is arriving in Islamabad tomorrow to hold bilateral meetings with Pakistani officials.

He said no request has so far been received from the Indian External Affairs Minister for bilateral talks.

Ishaq Dar said a political party is making attempts to sabotage the SCO summit by giving a call for protest in Federal Capital.

He said the call for the protest should be taken back in the larger interest of the country.

The Deputy Prime Minister said recent visits of Malaysian Prime Minister and Saudi delegation to Pakistan have remained fruitful.

Earlier, Ishaq Dar and Attaullah Tarar led a walk on the Constitution Avenue in Islamabad to review arrangements for SCO summit.
