Pakistan has proposed to India to hold the talks between foreign secretaries in the middle of January, the country's top diplomat said on Wednesday.
The peace process between the two estranged neighbours was revived this month when External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj visited Pakistan to attend ‘Heart of Asia’ Conference.
"Pakistan is now waiting for India’s response to the proposed dates," Sartaj Aziz, Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif's adviser on foreign affairs, said.
The revived 'comprehensive dialogue' will include talks on peace and security, Kashmir, Siachen, Sir Creek, Wullar Barrage, Tulbul Navigation Project, economic and commercial cooperation, counter-terrorism, narcotics control and people-to-people exchanges.
The national security advisors of the two sides will discuss terrorism as a separate track but under the new arrangement.
The peace process was set in motion when the prime ministers of the two countries met in Paris on November 30 on the sidelines of Climate Change Conference, which was followed by the NSAs’ meet in Bangkok a week later.
