About Pakistan-British relations, Pawan Dhande said they wanted to bolster the bilateral ties further as 1.6 million people of Pakistani heritage contribute to every single part of UK life, including in senior leadership roles.
Pawan Dhande was on a visit to Karachi where he went to different parts of the megacity. He said Karachi is progressing fast.
Pawan Dhande was appointed at the British High Commission in Islamabad last month replacing Fouzia Younis who had been posted as the British Consul General in Toronto.
