The conversations also discussed a strike against top politicians.
Phone intercepts also establish that the LeT is preparing for terror strikes in Delhi, Mumbai and Kolkata.
The development comes a day after the Home Ministry issued a terror alert on Thursday as senior officials and ministers from both countries are engaging to reduce "the trust deficit". (Terror alert in India: Pak-based groups may strike at public places)
India believes that terror groups in Pakistan opposed to the talks could strike now in an attempt to derail them.
P Chidambaram is in Islamabad, the first Indian Home Minister to visit Pakistan in 30 years. He made clear that terror topped his agenda as he met his Pakistani counterpart Rehman Malik this evening. Chidambaram is understood to have sought action against Hafiz Saeed, whom New Delhi considers the mastermind of the 26/11 attacks, and the handlers, including those who are believed to be serving in the Pakistani Army and those from the Lashkar.

Chidambaram is also believed to have sought voice samples of the Pakistani 26/11 handlers and raised issues like infiltration on the border of Jammu and Kashmir and Pakistanis who have infiltrated and are indulging in militant activities.
On Thursday, after meeting her counterpart Salman Bashir, India's Foreign Secretary Nirupama Rao said, "We believe the Pakistan Prime Minister's commitment that he won't allow Pakistan territory to be used for terror activities. We must deny terrorist elements any attempt to derail good relations."
Soon after the Chidambaram visit, External Affairs Minister SM Krishna is scheduled to meet the Pakistani Foreign Minister on July 15 in Islamabad.
