He strongly condemned the firing by the Indian forces at LoC.
Shah urged the United Nations to find a peaceful solution for the settlement of Kashmir dispute.
Talking to the media, Shah said the settlement of the Kashmir dispute is vital for the progress and prosperity of the region.
With over 50 violations across the LoC and working boundary Since August, tensions have been escalating between Pakistan and India.
Both the countries blame each other for violating the decade-old ceasefire. Skirmishes since the start of the year have taken the lives of many, including civilians. Starting from the LoC in Poonch sector, the firing has moved to the working boundary in Sialkot sector. The prime ministers of both the countries have condemned the flare-up but have so far failed to help silence the guns.

So basically, pak wants to infiltrate, then get shot at, then internationalise the issue?. Let's ask pak one thing, which international body is larger than or capable to " force" India?. Or let's take nations, china? Us? Who else...non. A futile delusion which will call for more punishement. From now on, even the mention of kashyappas kashmir should evoke strikes deep into pakistan, meaning, infrastructure and government houses.
Loc or no loc,,is there peace in the region, specially in pakistan....stop breeding strategic assets there will be peace in world
Mr. Shah, Pakistan's breeding of terrorists has already jeopardized the peace in the whole world. It's high time that Pakistan either shuts the breeding down or starts to pay a price for it. This double dealing on breeding terrorists while trying to hide behind the veil of peace is not going to work anymore.
Blah blah blah ....
Mr Khursheed, India reserves its right to retaliate when your MILITARY openly sends its assets across the LoC. These cross-border violations are going on for several decades, and the same have been admitted by your retired Generals SEVERAL TIMES on Pak TV channels. If you are competent to control your military, permanent peace could prevail on LoC in no time.
As if Pakistani army is there only to offer five time daily Namaz.
