Pakistan on Tuesday responded positively to the Indian offer for technical level talks on the resumption of Delhi-Lahore Samjhauta Express saying it was needed to create the right atmosphere for a meaningful and purposeful dialogue between the two countries.
"Yes we can. Actually we have been saying for a long time that we need to encourage people to people contact to create the right atmosphere so that at last Pakistan and India can start a meaningful and purposeful dialogue to resolve all disputes between them," Pakistan's Foreign Minister Khurshid Mahmood Kasuri said in a phone-in interview to NDTV.

He, however, did not say when Pakistan would give its response.
Khan was quoted by the official media as saying that Pakistan in the recent past offered to hold the talks four times, but there was no response from India.
