Pak-India foreign secretaries meeting today

NEW DELHI: Pakistan and India's foreign secretaries were to meet Wednesday to bolster a fragile peace dialogue.

A senior Indian government official said the talks in New Delhi between Foreign Secretary Ranjan Mathai and his Pakistani counterpart Jalil Abbas Jilani had the sole aim of keeping the "dialogue process on track."

Their meeting was to have taken place at the end of last month, but was postponed.

The foreign secretaries are expected to lay the ground for another round of talks between their respective foreign ministers -- originally scheduled for July 18 but also postponed with a new date yet to be announced. (AFP)
