Summary India`s Ministry of External Affairs cancelled the bi-lateral hockey series between India and Pakist
(Web Desk) - According to media report, India`s Foreign Ministry has called off the upcoming Indo-Pak hockey series that was scheduled to take place next month.
Pakistan`s hockey team was expected to visit India to play a five match series, the first such tour between the two countries in 7 years.
But recent events along the Indo-Pak border have led to further strain in the relationship between the two countries and this series is the latest casualty in the skirmish.
Pakistan s tour was supposed to involve matches in Ranchi, Lucknow, Delhi, Mohali and Jalandhar between April 5-15 and India was then supposed to tour Pakistan later in the month from April 23.
While the first tour has definitely been cancelled by India s Foreign Ministry, India s tour of Pakistan will also, most probably, be cancelled.
