SRINAGAR, NOV 19: The cross border travel by residents living on both sides of the
Line of Control (LoC) continues to be at a low scale affair as only six guests from Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) arrived here against eight residents of Kashmir valley who travelled to other side today.
Official sources told UNI that six residents of PoK, including three women, arrived here in the Karvan-e-Aman bus, operating between Srinagar and Muzaffarabad.
They said four residents of this side, including one women and a child, who had earlier crossed over to PoK, also returned in the same bus after meeting their relatives there.
Eight residents of this side, including two women, also crossed over to PoK for the first time to meet their relatives, said officials, adding 23 PoK residents who earlier visited here also travelled back to their homes after staying here with their relatives. They included seven women and two children.
The cross border bus service between two divided parts of the Jammu
and Kashmir was introduced in April 2005 to enable families separated
in 1947 to meet each other.
