SIALKOT: A media team visited various villages affected by Indian shelling in Sucheetgarh, Chaprar and Charwah sectors along the Sialkot Working Boundary on Tuesday.  Senior journalists Zafar Malik, Abid Hussain Mehdi, Imran Rehman, Abdul Majeed Butt and Arif Mehmood Sheikh met with the local perturbed people who told them about the problems they were facing by the repeated LoC violations.  Farmers of the area stated that the harvesting of the paddy and other seasonal crops had been lying suspended for the last eleven consecutive days due to indiscriminate heavy firing by Indian forces in bordering villages of Chaprar, Bajwat, Sucheetgarh, Bajra Garhi and Charwah Sectors. Residents said that the intensified heavy mortar shelling had created panic and fear among locals from all villages along the Sialkot Working Boundary. The media persons expressed their grave concern over the Indian aggression and said that targetting civilian population was condemnable.
