Islamabad, Sep 21 (PTI) Foreign Ministers of India
and Pakistan will meet in New York on September 27 when
Islamabad's commitment and action against terror emanating
from its soil will come under review.

Pakistan's action against perpetrators of the Mumbai
attacks will top the agenda of the meeting, which will take
place on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly,
the first high-level contact between the two countries after
the meeting between their Prime Ministers in July.

To prepare ground for the meeting, Foreign Secretaries
of both the countries will meet on September 26 during which
Salman Bashir will discuss with his Indian counterpart
Nirupama Rao all issues between the two countries, including
terrorism and the "core issue" of Kashmir.

"The Foreign Secretaries meeting is being held in
accordance with the decisions made during the talks between
the Prime Ministers of Pakistan and India at Sharm el-Sheikh
in July," Pakistan Foreign Secretary Salman Bashir said.

"All the issues between the two countries, including
terrorism and the core issue of Jammu and Kashmir, will be
discussed in these meetings," he told state-run APP, when
asked about the agenda for the two meetings. (MORE) PTI RHL
