| As Pakistan violates ceasefire, India vows 'effective retaliation' |
| 2014-10-07 |
| [INDIANEXPRESS] In the face of sustained firing from across the International Border and Line of Control, the government and the BSF took a hard line on Monday -- promising to "retaliate effectively" and, in a departure from past practice, said they would neither speak to Pakistain nor seek a flag meeting to lower tensions. Mortar and small arms fire that began overnight on Sunday, continued through Monday -- the targets moving from the Arnia sector to R S Pura and Kanachak along the IB, and subsequently to the entire Bhimber Gali area, and the Krishna Ghati and Kerni sectors along the LoC in Poonch district, sources said. Shelling was on until last reports came in late on Monday night, with the BSF and Army "strongly retaliating". |
