External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj may travel to Islamabad next week to attend a multilateral conclave on Afghanistan.

Though the government has not yet officially announced Swaraj’s visit to Islamabad, sources said she herself might travel to the capital of the neighbouring country for a day or two to attend the “Heart of Asia” meet on Afghanistan, instead of asking Minister of State for External Affairs V K Singh to represent her and lead the delegation from India.

Sources said that New Delhi would factor in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s “brief but good discussions” with his Pakistani counterpart Nawaz Sharif on the sidelines of the UN climate change summit COP 21 in Paris on Monday to arrive at a decision on the External Affairs Minister’s visit to Islamabad.
