Pakistani rangers injure 2 BSF jawans, kill 2 Indian civilians; BSF told to show restraint - The Economic Times
NEW DELHI: Days after Prime Minister Narendra Modi held talks with his Pakistani counterpart Nawaz Sharif in Russia, unprovoked firings along the international border by Pakistani Rangers has killed two Indian civilians and injured two BSF jawans in separate incidents. An Army interception also indicated that Pakistan Rangers had plans to use a rocket propelled grenade to blow up the ambulance sent to fetch one of the injured jawans.
Unlike last year, BSF restrained itself on the orders from New Delhi as it was felt that Pakistan forces were trying to provoke them in a bid to derail the peace attempt initiated during the meeting between Modi and Sharif. Security forces also suspect that it is an attempt by Pakistan to first engage India in cross firing and then blame India for firing during Eid.
At many places along the border, BSF troops complained of "restlessness" for "not retaliating" to Pak provocation.
