The first meeting of the joint anti-terrorism mechanism set up by India and Pakistan met on Tuesday in Islamabad.

India will give proof of the involvement of Pakistan-based terrorists in recent attacks in the country.

Pakistan, which had earlier said it will not allow the set-up to be a one-way channel, will ask India to stop backing the Baloch rebels.

Importantly, Pakistan will also ask India for the details about the Samjhauta Express blasts, which killed 68 people - mostly Pakistanis.

India might not share any information about the blasts till detailed investigations are over.
