Shoaib Bashir
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government whether they have made any representations to the government of India about the delay in the issue of a visa to the England cricketer, Shoaib Bashir.
- Answer
-
The specifics of this case are a matter for Shoaib Bashir and the Indian Government. We absolutely expect India to treat British citizens fairly at all times in its visa process. The UK Government cannot interfere in the immigration system of another country, but our relationship with India means that where we have concerns we raise them. We note Mr. Bashir's arrival in India ahead of the second test match.
