National Security Advisor Sartaj Aziz on Tuesday said Pakistan will hold talks with India only if the Kashmir issue is on the agenda.
He said the entire world has supported Islamabad's stance that the two countries need to hold dialogue on all the outstanding issues including Kashmir, Radio Pakistan reported.
Aziz rejected Indian allegations about the presence of wanted criminal Dawood Ibrahim in Pakistan. He said a befitting reply would be given.
The advisor said that a meeting between Pakistan Rangers' chief and commander of Indian Border Security Force (BSF) would be held in New Delhi on Wednesday. He said that the meeting is aimed at reducing tension along the Line of Control.
The advisor made it clear that the issue of the implementation of the 2003 ceasefire agreement will be raised at the meeting. He regretted that the Indian government's policy is anti-Pakistan from day one.
The advisor announced that Pakistan would present a dossier on Indian interference in the country at the UN.
