The Indian prime minister is due in nine days.
Two advisers to the prime minister and other senior government officials are holding talks with Indian national security adviser Shiv Shankar Menon at the Prime Minister's Office.

Menon arrived in the city in a special plane around 11:00am.
The meeting will fine tune all the aspects that will be discussed in the forthcoming visit of Manmohan Singh, he said.
