RAWALPINDI: The military’s media wing Inter-Services Public Relations issued a statement on Saturday, saying Pakistan had conveyed to India that it was “highly unprofessional and unethical” to deliberately target innocent civilians along the Line of Control (LoC).
According to the statement, Pakistan’s Director General of Military Operations (DGMO) had made “an unscheduled hotline contact” with his Indian counterpart and told him that Indian provocations in Nezapir, Chirikot and Battal sectors along the LoC were causing loss to civilian lives and that they may lead to an “unbearable response”.
In September, the apex body for civil-military coordination on national security matters had vowed to defend Pakistan against all forms of external aggression, placing a particular emphasis on countering the aggressive stance adopted by neighbouring India.
The National Security Committee (NSC), chaired by Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, had expressed deep concern over repeated ceasefire violations by India along the LoC, which had resulted in the loss of several innocent lives.
The heavily militarised LoC that splits the disputed Himalayan region of Kashmir has been witnessing cross-border shelling for quite some time, in sheer disregard of a November 2003 truce agreement. The ceasefire violations mostly culminate in civilian casualties.
Better launch a surgical strike in Bollywood Army if they don’t stop targeting our civilians
