ISLAMABAD: The Foreign Office on Saturday summoned Indian Deputy High Commissioner J.P. Singh to lodge protest over the unprovoked ceasefire violations by Indian forces along the Line of Control (LoC) in Bhimbar Sector.
Yesterday, the Indian troops resorted to ceasefire violations, resulting in the death of 22-year-old Munazza Bibi.
“The deliberate targeting of civilian populated areas is indeed deplorable and contrary to human dignity, international human rights and humanitarian laws. The ceasefire violations by India are a threat to regional peace and security and may lead to a strategic miscalculation,” said Director General (SA & SAARC) Dr Mohammad Faisal.
He urged the Indian side to respect the 2003 Ceasefire arrangement, investigate it and other incidents of ceasefire violations, instruct the Indian forces to respect the ceasefire in letter and spirit and maintain peace on the LoC and the Working Boundary.
He urged that the Indian side should permit UNMOGIP to play its mandated role as per the UN Security Council resolutions.
The Indian forces along the Line of Control and the Working boundary are continuously targeting civilian populated areas with heavy weapons.
In 2018, the Indian forces have carried out more than 2312 ceasefire violations along the Line of Control and the Working Boundary, resulting in the shahadats of 35 innocent civilians, while injuring 135 others.
This unprecedented escalation in ceasefire violations by India continued from the year 2017 when the Indian forces had committed 1970 ceasefire violations.
