NEW DELHI, DEC. 12. As part of the on-going composite dialogue process, India and Pakistan will hold talks, starting tomorrow, to combat the smuggling of narcotics and psychotropic substances. They are also expected to exchange drafts of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) that would explore ways to fight the menace. A five-member delegation from Pakistan, led by its Anti-Narcotics Force Director-General, Nadeem Ahmed, arrived here last night for the two-day talks. The Director-General of the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB), Swaraj Puri, will head the Indian team. The two sides will discuss methods for mutual detection of narcotic drugs and ways to control their smuggling, official sources said. An Indian delegation from the NCB had visited Pakistan in June this year for the first round of talks to check smuggling of narcotic drugs which, in this region, originate mainly from Afghanistan. Before the start of the talks tomorrow, the Pakistan delegation would call on the Home Minister, Shivraj Patil.
