Pakistan Rangers (PR) on Wednesday voiced their protest over targeting of Pakistani citizens by Indian Border Security Force (BSF) and called for an end to the attacks.
A 13-member Pakistan Rangers delegation led by Pakistan Rangers Deputy Director General Brig Hafiz Jamil reached India to join a peace-building dialogue being held in Attari.
Speaking at the occasion, Jamil said talks were important for resolving border disputes and revival of trust between the two neighboring countries.
He further said that PR had never taken any initiative in launching a cross-border attack. On the contrary, he said, any action taken had been “retaliatory”. He maintained retaliation was PR policy.
“We have made it clear that targeting civilians is an inhuman and immoral act and we will raise our protest at these talks,” he said.
The delegation is expected to hold talks with the Indian delegation on defence related issues, including smuggling and exchange of prisoners.
