Foreign secretaries of India, Pakistan to meet on July 4-5

As part of the second round of resumed dialogue process between India and Pakistan, Foreign Secretary Ranjan Mathai will hold talks with his Pakistani counterpart Jalil Abbas Jilani.

They will discuss peace and security, including Confidence Building Measures, Jammu and Kashmir and promotion of friendly exchanges, official spokesperson in the Ministry of External Affairs Syed Akbaruddin said.

Earlier Jilani had announced that he would be travelling to India on June 29 to hold talks but given the political upheaval in Pakistan, the talks were delayed.

Last time, the foreign secretaries had met in Islamabad during which India's concerns over terror and slow pace of Mumbai trial were discussed.
