India and Pakistan will discuss the issue of Sir Creek at the forthcoming Foreign Minister-level talks between the two countries. Talking to newsmen in New Delhi, India's Chief Hydrographer Vice-Admiral B R Rao said talks on Sir Creek issue would begin in July between the two sides. Describing the issue as one of the easily deliverable subjects, he said talks would be preceded by a meeting between the Additional Secretary-rank officer of the Surveyor General of India and his Pakistani counterpart. He said in 2008, Pakistan had agreed that maritime boundary could be easily resolved. But they insisted on including all the three zones- maritime boundary, horizontal sector and Sir Creek together. Talking about India's maritime boundary dispute with Bangladesh which is pending with the International Court of Justice (ICJ), he said surprisingly Bangladesh raised the issue in 2009, while it had already singed 50 MoUs with India on bilateral cooperation’s. AIR correspondent reports India has settled boundary issues with almost all its maritime neighbours like Sri Lanka, Mayanmar, Thailand, Indonesia and Maldives. But the Sir Creek issue with Pakistan and maritime dispute with Bangladesh are pending for several decades. While India and Pakistan have made considerable progress over the issue and exchanged a number of maps in 2008, Bangladesh decided to file a legal suit in the ICJ.
