India, Pak hold talks to start more bus services
Tuesday, September 27 2005 15:49 Hrs (IST) - World Time -

New Delhi: India and Pakistan today (Sept 27, 2005) held the second round of technical-level talks on commencing the Amritsar-Lahore and Amritsar-Nankana Sahib bus services.

The Indian delegation was led by Dilip Sinha, joint secretary in the External Affairs Ministry and the Pakistan delegation was headed by Mohammad Abbas, additional secretary in the Ministry of Communications.

Spotlight: Kashmir is NOT negotiable

At the first round in Islamabad in May this year, the two sides had agreed in principle to run the two bus services but had deferred their operationalisation to work out more technical details.

During the two-day talks, the two sides are expected to discuss in detail modalities and frequency of the proposed service from Amritsar to Nankana Sahib, the birth place of Guru Nanak.

On the Amritsar-Lahore bus service, the two sides have to firm up the designated route, bus terminals, facilities for the bus crew, modalities of visa arrangements and a Protocol and MOU.
