TEHRAN: India and Iran have agreed on adopting a ministerial system between three countries including Pakistan for completion of the gas pipeline.This has been decided in the meeting between Indian foreign minister Pranab Mukherjee and Iranian petroleum minister Ghulam Hussain Nawazi here on Sunday.Under this decision, the petroleum ministers of Pakistan, Iran and India will work together for the completion of the IPI project.After this decision, it is being hoped that the IPI project, pending for a long time, will be completed and a meeting of the spokesmen of all the three countries will soon be held in this regard.Experts say that India is taking more interest in this project of $7.5 billion because it fears that the gas supply may be disconnected to it if the relations with Pakistan strain.
