Islamabad, Aug.28 : Former Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has said that resolution of Kashmir issue is imperative for peace in the region adding that all outstanding issues with India should be resolved on equal terms.

During a meeting with Pakistan held Kashmir President Raja Muhammad Zulqernain, Sharif said Islamabad wants to resolve all issues with India amicably, including Kashmir.

"The issue should be resolved on equal terms rather than one side dominating the other," The Dawn quoted Sharif, as saying.

"It is need of hour to start process of dialogue with India as it is high time that tensions between the two countries must be solved for the sake of millions of Kashmiris living on both sides of the border," he added.
