Early Times Report
Jammu, Feb 13: The Army said on Thursday the bilateral ceasefire on the Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu and Kashmir continues to be observed as per the understanding between the armies of India and Pakistan.
This comes a day after sources said the Pakistan Army had resorted to an unprovoked ceasefire violation on the LoC in the Poonch district in the Krishna Ghati sector. The same sources said the Pakistan Army had suffered casualties in the retaliatory firing by the Indian Army.
On Thursday, a statement issued by the Indian Army said, “The ceasefire on the LoC is intact and continues to be observed as per the understanding between both the armies (of India and Pakistan). Tension due to some stray incidents of cross LoC firing and a suspected IED blast on one of our ptls on the LoC is being dealt with through the established mechanism. No exchange of fire of heavy-calibre weapons has taken place. Minor incidents are not unprecedented along the LoC. Concerns have been raised to the Pakistan Army at the appropriate level.”
“The situation remains stable and being closely monitored. Indian Army maintains high state of alertness and is dominating the LoC,” the statement further read. |
