MUZAFFARABAD:
Leader of Opposition in the National Assembly Khursheed Shah said that continuous violations of  the Line of Control (LoC) would jeopardize the peace of the entire region, Radio Pakistan reported.

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.
