Pak will come on right track: Rajnath on ceasefire violations
New Delhi, Jan 1 (IBNS): With Pakistani troops targetting Indian posts along the International Border in Jammu and Kashmir on late Wednesday night, Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Thursday said issues between India and Pakistan would be resolved soon.
"Our diplomats are in talking process with officials in Pakistan. Talks are on. I think Pakistan will come on the right track, if not today then tomorrow," he said.
His statement came when Pakistani troops targetted 12 Indian posts along the International Border in Jammu and Kashmir on late Wednesday night.
The incident took place at an area where cross border firing killed an Indian jawan and four Pakistani soldiers.
Sources said that a civilian was injured in mortar shelling by Pakistani troops through the night in Samba district, 41 km from Jammu.
This was the third ceasefire violation by Pakistani forces in past two days.
Pakistan Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Wednesday summoned the Indian Deputy High Commissioner to lodge a strong protest on the ‘unprovoked firing of the Indian troops’ in the Zafarwal Sector which killed two personnel of Pakistani Rangers.
The Government of Pakistan strongly condemned the action of the India’s Border Security Force (BSF) troops.
BSF Director General D. K. Pathak also briefed Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh about the ceasefire violations by Pakistan Rangers at the International Border in Samba sector of Jammu and Kashmir, officials said.
Pathak informed that one BSF jawan was killed in the unprovoked and premeditated Pakistani firing.
