PESHAWAR: The Royal British Couple has declined an invitation by the
Provincial government for attending the Shandoor Fair due to security
concerns.
The provincial government had sent an invitation to
the Royal couple to attend the Shandoor Fair which is starting from
July 7. The invitation says that since Lady Diana had also attended the
fair thus the Royal couple should also do.
However, according
to official sources, Foreign Ministry and UK High Commission in
Pakistan in a circular to the provincial government have thanked for
the invitation and adopted the stance that the Royal Couple cannot
attend the Shandoor Fair .
The provincial government had sent the invitation to put an end to negative propaganda against tourism in KP. Online
