During the meeting the Indian side said it was committed to addressing all bilateral issues, including Kashmir, in a "sincere and purposeful manner", Saran said.
Aziz said after the meeting that progress on resolving the Kashmir problem would have to be made in tandem with forward movement on other issues between India and Pakistan.
Aziz made it clear that he did not carry to the Indian side President Pervez Musharraf's recent formulation on Kashmir, which he said was meant for public debate in Pakistan. "No proposals were presented to India. No reaction was expected from India," he said.
