Years of Indian Visa rejections

I am a born Indian who got married to a Pakistani citizen in 1992. I have my siblings living in Pune (Maharashtra) and several other blood relatives living in Mumbai, Kolhapur and Kutch. Upon learning of the participation of Mr S Jaishankar, India’s External Affairs Minister, in SCO Summit in Islamabad, I decided raise my issue related to obtaining Indian visit visa for myself and my family. I have not been able to visit India as my visa applications have been rejected thrice in the last 9 years without assigning any reason. I had been visiting my country of birth after every 2-3 years since 1992, but during the last decade, despite my best efforts and providing all necessary documents to the Indian High Commission in Islamabad, my visa applications have been rejected. I have no idea how long it will take for India and Pakistan to normalise their relations but what I know for sure is that I and many Indian citizens married to Pakistani nationals are suffering due to constrained relations between both the nations. I could not attend my parent’s funeral in the past as my visa applications were turned down due to tension on borders. I am planning to visit India in April 2025 to meet my siblings and seek your assistance, Mr Jaishankar, in obtaining Indian visit visa for myself and my family!
