LAHORE: The Samjhota Express train service between Pakistan and India resumed its operations on Monday morning after a brief hiatus owing to rising tensions between the two neighbouring countries since the Pulwama attack, reported ARY News.

The train, which runs between Wagah in Pakistan and Attari in India twice a week, departed at around 8:30 am, carrying 151 passengers.

Minister for Railways Sheikh Rasheed Ahmed had earlier on Saturday announced the resumption of the train service.
