Condemning the Wagah suicide attack in the strongest terms, the business community has expressed its optimism that bilateral trade through the land route will shortly return to normalcy.
Soon after the Sunday blast, there were reports that the land route trade between Pakistan and India through trucks could remain suspended for a couple of days because of the incident.
Some 10 Pakistani trucks crossed over to Attari (India) but no Indian vehicle carrying trade goods reached Wagha on Monday, a Pakistani Customs official.
The official said 120 or so truckloads of cement, gypsum and dry fruits crossed over to Attari on an average daily, while the number of vehicles bringing Indian tomatoes, ginger, garlic, soybean extraction and cotton yarn ranged between 200-250.
