ISLAMABAD: Pakistan summoned India's Deputy High Commissioner JP Singh for the second consecutive day on Friday over the "unprovoked firing" through Indian troops across the Line of Control.
Foreign Office mentioned that Director General (South Asia & SAARC) Mohammad Faisal summoned Singh and condemned the "unprovoked ceasefire violations" through the Indian forces alongside the LoC on March 1 in Bhimber/Samahini Sectors.
The firing killed a civilian and injured his wife and son, it mentioned, adding that Indian troops were using "heavy mortars".
Faisal mentioned despite calls for restraint, India continues to delight in ceasefire violations. India performed more than 415 ceasefire violations alongside the Line of Control and the Working Boundary thus far in 2018, resulting within the killings of 20 civilians and injuries to 71 others, he mentioned.
He mentioned this "unprecedented escalation in ceasefire violations by India is continuing from the year 2017 when the Indian forces committed 1970 ceasefire violations."
"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," mentioned Faisal.
Pakistan recommended the Indian facet to recognize the 2003 Ceasefire association; examine this and other incidents of ceasefire violations; instruct the Indian forces to recognize the ceasefire, in letter and spirit and take care of peace at the LoC and the Working Boundary.
