Pakistan’s permanent representative to United Nations on Saturday urged the body to play its role in defusing tension on the Line of Control (LoC).

Pakistani Ambassador Masood Khan called on UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon in New York and informed him about the situation on LoC and the Working Boundary.

Khan urged UN to play its role to end ceasefire violations which have killed at least 12 Pakistanis since October 6.

Unprovoked Indian firing has triggered an exodus of people from the villages near the border.

Clashes occur regularly along the LoC as well as the Working Boundary. However, the latest shelling has been unusual in its intensity and frequency.
