Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday extended his best wishes to his Pakistani counterpart Imran Khan for a speedy recovery from Covid-19.

On Saturday, Modi tweeted, “Best wishes to Prime Minister @ImranKhanPTI for a speedy recovery from COVID-19.”

Khan, who is self-isolating at home, tested positive two days after he got the first shot of a vaccine.

Updating about Imran Khan’s health, Pakistan health minister Faisal Sultan tweeted, he had a mild cough and fever.

68-year-old Khan had been seen holding meetings without wearing mask on some occasions, lately.

The Pak PM is reported to have received the first shot of the Chinese-produced Sinopharm vaccine, the only anti-COVID jab available in Pakistan.The cash-strapped country has been mostly relying on China for health supplies and vaccines.

Modi’s message comes days after Pakistan army chief Gen Qamar Javed Bajwa signalled a potentially radical shift and asked New Delhi to create a “conducive environment” in Kashmir for the resumption of a dialogue towards peace between the two countries.

Khan’s relationship with Indian PM Modi has also been frosty, especially after the Pulwama terror attack in which 40 Indian soldiers had lost their lives in the line of duty.

Khan regularly attacks PM Modi on Twitter over a host of issues, including the revocation of Jammu and Kashmir’s special status and the former state’s bifurcation into two Union Territories.
