Pakistan Army’s support to terrorism is unacceptable and India will continue to take all retaliatory measures to respond to such acts, Indian Army’s director-general of military operations (DGMO) told his Pakistani counterpart on Monday.
In an unscheduled conversation with lt Gen AK Bhatt over the hotline, Pakistani DGMO Maj Gen Sahir Shamshad Mirza accused the Indian security forces of resorting to unprovoked firing along the line of Control (loC) in Jammu and Kashmir.
However, Bhatt said retaliatory firing by Indian troops has only been carried out in response to “unabated support” provided by the Pakistan Army to armed terrorists, who infiltrate across the border and target Indian Army posts with heavy calibre weapons, the Army said in a statement here.
