All SCO members, including Pakistan and China, have received official invitations from India to the forthcoming conference of foreign ministers, which will take place in Goa from May 4–5.

India assumed leadership of the nine-nation mega-grouping in September of last year and will host important ministerial gatherings and the summit this year.

Regarding concerns of cross-border terrorism from Pakistan, relations between the two countries have been tense for a long time, notwithstanding Islamabad’s demands for the reinstatement of Article 370 for the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir.
