New Delhi: Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee confirmed on April 29 that he has been invited to visit Pakistan, but has not accepted the invitation.

"I was invited to visit Pakistan by Prime Minister of that country, but I have not accepted it," he told Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Parliamentary Party meeting in New Delhi on April 29 morning, party sources said.

Vajpayee was referring to the telephonic talk he had with his Pakistani counterpart, Zafarullah Khan Jamali on April 28 night.

Party spokesman V K Malhotra, briefing reporters after the meeting, said the Prime Minister informed the members that the issue of terrorism figured in the telephonic talk with Jamali.

Asked about details of what transpired, Malhotra said Vajpayee told the meeting that as Parliament was on, he would not like to divulge details of the conversation with Jamali and if the issue figured in Parliament, he might make a statement in the House.
