India and Pakistan Monday began two days of talks to resolve the issue of the Sir Creek marshland on the boundary of the two countries near the coast. The meeting in New Delhi came a week after inconclusive talks on the Himalayan glacier of Siachen. The marshland along the 96-kilometre stretch of border between Pakistan's Sindh province and India's Gujarat state is believed to have rich oil and mineral reserves, according to a report of DPA. The consultations are part of a bilateral dialogue initiated in 2004.
