The Foreign Secretary called in the Indian High Commissioner this afternoon [Monday] and handed over a letter addressed to his Indian counterpart, inviting him to visit Pakistan for talks on Jammu and Kashmir dispute that has been the main bone of contention between India and Pakistan, Zakaria said.
