When asked that during his speech at Quetta recently the President had said that there was conspiracy to affect adversely the good relations between Pakistan and Iran, he said he made an inquiry which revealed that there was no conspiracy at all except “the conspiracy of the Home Minister, Khan Abdul Qayyum Khan”.
