"We will continue to pursue the talks with them. There cannot be a timeframe for negotiation and talks to conclude," he said. There has been pressure from Myanmar for an early Indian decision on how the gas would be transported to India, Sharma said. "India is vigorously pursuing gas pipeline projects, both on its eastern and western land frontiers." Besides the Iran-Pakistan-India gas pipeline project under discussion, India is also looking at Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan pipeline, initially as an observer. Myanmar, Bangladesh, and India last year signed a trilateral pact for a gas pipeline project to meet India's gas needs and also help Bangladesh bring gas from surplus regions to deficit areas. During President A.P.J. Abdul Kalam's recent visit to Myanmar, an agreement was signed on energy. Foreign Secretary Shyam Saran has said export of gas from Myanmar could be done through a pipeline, although other options could also be looked at.
