Islamabad: Pakistan is ready to discuss all outstanding issues, including Kashmir, with India as war is not the solution to any problem, Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani has said.

It is necessary to resolve all issues between India and Pakistan so that the countries could give attention to the problems of the people, he said in an interview to a TV news channel.

Replying to a question about Pakistan's relations with India, he said Islamabad has always maintained that the ties "should be on the basis of equality."

Resolving outstanding issues would allow the two countries to focus on the problems of the 1.5 billion people of the subcontinent, including unemployment, price rise and the lack of infrastructure and the basic needs of life, he said.
