| Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has held a second high-level meeting today in as many days and reiterated his country's commitment to cooperate with India on investigating the Pathankot air base terror attack
1Today's meeting was attended by Pakistan's Army chief General Raheel Sharif, apart from senior ministers and its National Security Adviser Nasir Janjua.
2Also at the meeting were a senior officer of Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence and its Director General Military Operations.
3After a meeting yesterday, PM Sharif ordered an investigation into evidence provided by India of the Pathankot attack by six Pakistani terrorists believed to belong to the Jaish-e-Mohammed terror group, a media report said.
4The evidence has been handed over to Pakistan's Intelligence Bureau chief Aftab Sultan for further action, the report said.
5At today's meeting, Prime Minister Sharif re-affirmed Pakistan's strong condemnation of terrorism and its commitment to eradicate terrorism from the region.
6Pakistani media reports said the meeting expressed confidence that the two neighbours would remain committed to "sustained, meaningful and comprehensive dialogue" building on the goodwill generated through meetings between their Prime Ministers.
7India has indicated to Pakistan that crucial talks between the Foreign Secretaries of both countries are unlikely to go ahead next week unless Pakistan delivers "prompt and decisive action" on the evidence it has given.
8The evidence furnished by India includes intercepts of phone calls made by the six terrorists.
