“We are ready to talk on all issues. We know what are the issues,” sources familiar with preparations for the talks said.

“Let's see what they offer to deal with our concerns,” they said adding.

India would like to hear from Pakistan on specific steps they would want to take on key issues like dismantling LeT, bringing to justice the perpetrators of the 2008 Mumbai terrorist attacks, and anti-India activities of "wanted" individuals like Dawood Ibrahim.

Economic issues too are expected to figure in the talks including granting the Most Favoured Nation status to India, which has long been promised by Pakistan and has been delayed for reasons best known to Islamabad.
