"Arrangements have been made for the receipt of the dossier in Islamabad," Pakistan's foreign ministry said.

The ministry gave no details on the contents of the file, which it said would be forwarded to the interior ministry "for examination".

New Delhi has put pressure on Islamabad to speed up its investigations into those who carried out the attacks.
