Indian Foreign Minister Dr S. Jaishankar shares pictures of his activities on social media platform X

Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar is in Islamabad to attend the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) meeting, where he shared details of his engagements at the Indian High Commission.

Jaishankar posted photos on social media platform X, showcasing his morning walk and tree planting activities at the Indian High Commission in Islamabad.

Using the hashtag #Plant4Mother, he wrote about planting an Arjuna sapling at the High Commission, expressing his commitment to environmental initiatives.

In another post, he shared a photo from his morning walk with colleagues, stating, “Enjoying a morning walk with my colleagues in the High Commission campus.”

While addressing the SCO conference, Jaishankar asserted that true peace necessitates a firm stance against terrorism and extremism.

Earlier today, during his speech at the SCO summit, S. Jaishankar highlighted the importance of addressing challenges between neighbours through honest dialogue and cooperation.

Jaishankar congratulated Pakistan on assuming the chairmanship of the SCO Council of Heads of Government and assured India’s full cooperation throughout Pakistan’s tenure, according to Express news.

Jaishankar emphasised that one of the core objectives of the SCO charter is to promote mutual trust, friendship, and cooperation among neighbouring countries.

He urged that if relations between neighbours are not good, it is crucial to identify and address the underlying causes.

The Indian foreign minister reiterated that the SCO must focus on tackling terrorism, separatism, and extremism, three of the most significant challenges outlined in the organisation’s charter.
