Pakistan violates ceasefire as PM
returns after meeting Sharif
Pakistani troops fired at Indian
positions on the line of control (LoC)
in Mendhar sector of Poonch district
in Jammu and Kashmir, in yet
another violation of the bilateral
ceasefire, a defence spokesman said
Wednesday.
"Pakistan troops used small arms
and automatics to target our
positions in Mendhar sector of the
LoC yesterday (Tuesday). Pakistan
firing started at 2.30 pm," Captain S
N Acharya, defence spokesman, told
IANS here today.
"Our troops retaliated with same
calibre weapons and the exchange of
firing continued up to 3.30 pm. No
damage was caused to our troops in
this firing exchange," the spokesman
added.
The unprovoked firing by Pakistan
troops in yet another violation of the
bilateral ceasefire agreement signed
by India and Pakistan in November
2003 has coincided with the return
of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh
from the US where he met his
Pakistani counterpart Nawaz Sharif.
The two prime ministers had agreed
to work out a more effective
mechanism to stop ceasefire
violations on the borders between
the two countries in divided
Kashmir.
