Pakistan has lodged a strong protest with India over Thursday’s Line of Control (LoC) violation by Indian troops which resulted in the killing of a Pakistan Army soldier.
A senior Indian diplomat from the Indian High Commission was summoned at the South Asian desk of the Foreign Ministry and was conveyed Pakistan’s serious concerns over the issue, said a statement issued on Friday.
During the meeting, Pakistan made it clear that such violations of the LoC will not be tolerated.
Indian diplomat was reminded that India has to respect the ceasefire agreement at the LoC and prevent its forces from such actions.
According to Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), Indian troops resorted to unprovoked firing at the LoC in Pandu sector near Muzaffarabad on Thursday.
“Pakistani troops befittingly responded to Indian firing,” it added.
The incident took place the same day when Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif visited Azad Jammu-Kashmir (AJK) capital, Muzzafarabad and extended his support to Kashmiris for their right of self determination. He made his intentions clear that Pakistan will speak with Kashmiri leaders before it enters into dialogue with India.
I want pakistan and India to unite forever and stop blaming each other
