Pakistan hosts talks with India on territorial dispute

Pakistan and India resumed talks today aimed at resolving a lingering territorial dispute that has hindered oil and gas exploration and led to the arrests of fishermen from both sides.

The talks on the Sir Creek - a strip of marshland that flows into the Arabian Sea between Pakistan's southern Sindh province and India's western Gujarat state-- are part of a peace process and warming of relations between the South Asian nuclear-armed neighbours that began in 2004.
