"We are very satisfied with the arrangements and infrastructure made by Pakistan government for the trial run of Amritsar-Lahore bus service," he said.
Talwar said Pakistan would undertake its trial run of the bus on Tuesday and Pakistani officials would travel by the bus which would return to Pakistan on December 14 after inspecting the infrastructure and arrangements made by India.
Talwar said the Amritsar-Lahore bus would take the same route adopted by Delhi-Lahore bus.
'India, Pak still need to address issues'
India and Pakistan launched the first cross-border bus service in March 1999. The service resumed in July, 2003 after being suspended following the militant attack on Parliament.
The second bus link opened between Srinagar and Muzaffarabad in April this year.
The two countries are also poised to launch a fourth bus to connect Amritsar with Nankana Sahib, the birth place of Sikh religion founder Guru Nanak in Pakistan's Punjab province.
