Jammu, February 13: The Indian army on Thursday denied reports of major exchange of fire on LoC and clarified that the ceasefire is in tact.
The Indian Army, in an official statement, said the ceasefire along the Line of Control (LoC) is intact and continues to be observed as per the understanding between both the armies. The statement comes after reports of unprovoked firing by Pakistani troops in the Mendhar sector of Jammu and Kashmir’s Poonch district.
“Tension due to some stray incidents of cross LoC firing and a suspected IED blast on the LoC is being dealt with through the established mechanism. No exchange of fire of heavy-calibre weapons has taken place. Minor incidents are not unprecedented along the LoC,” it clarified.
