Another delegate, Professor Patil, remembered about his previous trip back in 2006 when it took just 90 minutes to travel from Mumbai to Karachi.
This time, due to indirect routes, the journey spanned 12 hours via Bahrain. ENT Professor Taneja added, “Hearing and speaking Urdu here feels truly refreshing.”
The Indian health experts stressed the importance of fostering more opportunities for exchanges between Indian and Pakistani citizens and professionals.
Professor Sameer Qureshi, Organizing Secretary of the SAARC ENT Congress, highlighted that the event hosts 30 foreign delegates, including participants from SAARC nations like Afghanistan and other global regions.
