Indian troops violate ceasefire in Pukhlian sector
According to the statement, Pakistani troops responded ‘befittingly' to Indian aggression.
There were no reports of loss of life or property in the latest exchange of fire.
The ongoing clashes, which erupted on the first week of October, were the worst since the two countries agreed to a landmark ceasefire deal in 2003. Both countries have accused each other of starting the hostilities.
At least 12 Pakistanis have been have so far been killed in the ongoing skirmishes. The clashes have triggered an exodus of people from the villages near the LoC and working boundary.
Earlier today, Sartaj Aziz, the adviser to Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on national security and foreign affairs, appealed to UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon to advise India to adopt a reasonable approach and refrain its armed forces from acting irrationally and violating the ceasefire between the two nuclear-armed neighbours.

Using nuclear bombs can end civilisation both countries know the consiquences it can have to the world, i dont think a few cease fire violations will result in a nulear war.... The media always hype things.
@Saad: If Pakistan ever dares use its "atom bum", the "massive and disproportionate" retaliation will ensure that it will never need to run to the UN again
Oh I forgot, it was India who attacked Pakistan to improve India's economy.
India responded to Pakistan initiated attack as usual.
@Saad: brrr, we are quivering in our boots. ;)
@Saad: Are you saying your army will use an atom bomb over ceasefire violations on LOC? Are you aware that India too has nuclear capability? Your nuclear lackmail will t work. If you fire across the LOC, India will ive a befitting reply. The current Indian government is nit so weak as to be bullied by your attempts at internationalisation of Kashmir issue and your empty threats of nuclearisation.
Pakistan is complaining to UN. What kind of befitting reply is this ? I think India has burst Pakistan's Nuclear threat balloon. So the question Pakistan has to answer is that if they cannot give befitting reply to India, why have the army at all. There is no need for any army.
@MJ: TTP was created by US and Pak to counter Soviet Union. Now it has turned against own masters.
@Jahangir Chauhan: Why is Pakistan copying Palestinians?
A questions to Pakistanis claiming TTP to be backed up by India. Has Pakistani army or Government been able to produce a single ounce of proof to back the claims of Indian support to TTP or all these claims are just propaganda to gain sympathy for the operation against TTP?
@ Saad, Ooooh! I'm mighty scared!
Indian backed TTP getting their behinds kicked. India retaliating at the Eastern border of Pakistan. What the Indians don't realize that Pakistan already played this game and is paying dearly for it. It won't be too long before these Taliban will be creating havoc in India.
Indian are copying Israelis. Both are destined to doom.But we need to be vigilant and give them proper hard reply whereever they open fire on our territory.
Tell indians if they fire another bullet towards pakistan than get ready to face consequences.. India don't you love your people? Don't you know we have atom bomb? let your people live peacefully..
In India this increased firing by India along the LOC is being described as the NEW Normal . The old stupid policy of calibrated response has been junked . The new policy is about disproportionate response . Pakistan should stop firing and infiltration of your strategic assets ie if Pakistan wants peace along the LOC
@oBSERVER: OK
India maybe resorting to the American tactic which brought down the Soviet Union ... they utilized their economic superiority combined with military buildup to make the Russians spend enough on military to bankrupt themselves. Hopefully Pakistan will be smarter than the Soviets.
War engender war & Peace engender peace.
