Pakistan urges India to show restraint; condemns LoC deaths
127
ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Monday lodged a strong protest with the government of India through diplomatic channels and called upon India to restrain its forces from “constant violation of the ceasefire”.
"This was the sixth violation, occurring on a daily basis since October 1… Indian Forces violated [the ceasefire] from Akhnur, Dawar, Gulmerg, Jammu, Dawar and lastly, from Charwah Sectors," spokesperson for the Foreign Office Tasneem Aslam said in a statement.
Aslam said Pakistan strongly condemns the Indian Security Forces’ unprovoked firing, which violated the ceasefire at the working boundary at the Charwah sector today.
"The firing started at midnight and continued till morning. The Indian violation in complete disregard of the sacred occasion of Eid-ul-Azha, caused shahadat of four innocent citizens and injuries to three others," the spokesperson said.
She added that two children and a woman in the village Dharmala as well as one 60-year-old man in Tulsipur were among the casualties while two civilians in Dharmala and a child in village Harpal were injured.
"It is deeply saddening that Indian Security Forces’ act of aggression deprived a number of families from celebrating Eid," she said.
" The government of Pakistan offers its condolences to the bereaved families and the victims. Our heart goes out to the affected families," the spokesperson added.

Nine civilians were killed and at least 25 wounded on Monday in fighting along a stretch of the disputed border between India and Pakistan in the Kashmir region.
An Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) statement issued on Monday said that Indian Border Security Forces (BSF) personnel resorted to “unprovoked firing” along the working boundary in Sialkot as a result of which four people were killed whereas five others sustained injuries
Indian authorities alleged, however, that Pakistani forces shelled the village of Arnia about three km (two miles) from the border in the early hours of Monday, killing five and wounding at least two dozen civilians.

Arnia, where the villagers have died out of Pakistani shells, is 6 kms inside the border. There are footages of houses with Pakistani shells and dead villagers. Had India violated the LoC, it was unlikely for this to happen 6 kms inside the border. Further these shellings have been happening since past 3 days (since the day of Dusshera) and has continued till Eid. Both Govts need to maintain strong restraint on the army to contain them from further shellings. There should be video recorders on both sides so that there is clarity on violations. One of my cousins house roof was shattered because of the firings from Pakistan. This must stop.

@Mustafa Except in this case the firing happened in Jammu region where the majority are Hindus and the dead too in this incident are also Hindus on the Indian side. So it appears from your logic it is Pakistan that started the firing to kill Hindus on Indian side and India retaliated resulting in the death of Muslims on Pakistani side. If India started this, it would have started firing at LOC in Kashmir Valley as in that case the resultant retaliatory fire would have killed only Muslims on the Indian side. Do you see the fallacy of your argument?

Whenever, there is ceasefire violation,people from both sides suffer. I think its high time that political and military echeleons from both sides should sit together once again so that tragedies on both sides of the border should be averted. God is one and He has created this world for the mankind so that all would live in peace. This is the gist of Gita, Kuran, Bible and any other holy book of the world. We all are one rather we should call ourselves as the world citizens, thus shunning away the trrritorial boundaries. We are one of the greatest creation of Him. Through this newspaper, its my humblest appeal to thboth Indian and Pak govt. to let this bloodshed stop on both sides of the LOC because its ultimately we people, the people who reside on both sides of the border, who are the worst sufferers in this blame game between the two countries. Thanks the Dawn for providing me the platform to express my feelings as I am the poor resident of border area.

I think the Pak military is preparing for the next coup. Nobody can verify who violated the ceasefire first. There are three party to this situation, Indian Govt, Pak Govt and Pak Army. Pak army is the one that benefits the most in such a scenario of destabilization as Pak army can say that the civilian govt is not performing and national security is at stake again. This being the excuse, they can either (a) stage a coup and justify it using the sentiment in the media/masses, or (b) justify mid-term polls and supporting the party that plays to their tune and help keep this charade of democracy on. Nawaz can either be spine-less and give signs that he will be the puppet that the Pak army wants it to be, or else they have other ways to get what they want. Now that Nawaz has little more power than before by the recent new appointments in the ISI, Pak army has become creative. I wish political parties keep their ideological differences but they should at least unite in the face of this constant threat of Army taking over. Tabhi aayegi, ASLI TABDEELI

Somebody had to shoot first.
Somewhere, there are trigger-happy troops and a government willing to let them shoot first.
Whether they thought they saw a "target", or were only shooting at shadows, no one cares now. It's escalated to the top government level.

One side starts firing and due to lack of any evidence, can conveniently blame it on the other side. Both the countries blame each other of exact same thing and then there is no way to know the truth. Furious citizens get on forums like this and express their anger against each other although even they don't know the truth.
If we were truly human, we would have got online to express our compassion, not misguided anger. We would have strongly urged governments of both side to stop any firing. I strongly believe we can make governments from both side to stop firing if we raise voice against them in their mindless act. It is more important to save few precious lives than ritually blaming each other.
Being Indian, I strongly urge Indian government to stop firing.

So when these terrorists were eliminated and given a respectful burial, the graves couldn't be marked simply because identity was not known. At the same time I am not denying isolated cases, where innocents might have been killed, something that cannot be ruled out while fighting insurgency.

I am not sure who started the LOC fire, However if you look at the history written by Pakistanis including Pakistani generals. All the wars against India was started by Pakistan(Kargil,1971,1965 etc)

India is blaming Pakistan, Pakistan is blaming india. Don't you children see that they are both guilty. Just because you are from one of these countries doesn't mean you have to defend it. The "proofs" that you people are citing can easily be fake or altered.

How does FO spokesperson look like if this had been Zia's regime?
PML-N/NS are the brainchild of Zia, FO spokesperson should represent Islamic values.

there is no need for india to fire across the border . Pak starts the firing rituals for 2 reasons 1) to divert the Indian army 2) use the diversion to push the Jihadists into India ..

We need to stop cozying up to these Indians. Their superiority complex has blinded them. My Indian friends we will throw you in the Arabian sea if you ever cast a bad eye on Pakistan. We are sick of putting up with your pressure tactics. Yes, we have supported militancy in the past and perhaps we do it now also but nothing justifies your arrogance towards us! Do what you have to about it. We do not care. And listen, back off or you will suffer big time. We will never let you attain your dream of the Grand Bharat! Go do something about your millions of slum dwellers and half your population who take a dump in the open. You have more problems than us so stop giving your BHASHANS to us.

I guess the only question we need to ask is "when there is firing at LoC who does it benefit....who wants attention to cover up local polical trouble ...who is feeling left out". Make no mistake the Pakistan military may find that they have bitten more than they can chew when they start something. India may not start conflicts with Pakistan but will certainly finish it.

@Lalu "Pakistan FO needs to be bold and say Yes we fired at you, if they did. Make me stop!!!"
Isn't this what they are saying by implication? Why else, as you say, you are firing in "retaliation"?

hi guys.. I'm an Indian, a student from class 10th.. I don't have much to contribute here but still I'll try.. I've seen this tendency among many Pakistanis that Muslims are treated very badly and butchered everywhere in India and if an Indian Muslim says its not the truth, then he must be telling a lie to show himself patriotic..!!
well guess what guys, YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT..!! we treat our Muslims very very badly.. you see, yesterday, during lunch time in school, I snached a samosa from one of my Muslim classmates and he snatched 2 of my parathas ( you see its his favourite).. then 3-4 other guys also came and they all started looting each other's lunch.. we joked about each other's crushes.. we do these things daily.. he's coming to my home today alongwith 5-6 other friends to play cricket.. I'll definitely show him your comments and ask him if he feels threatened by me and shares his lunch and plays cricket with me, only because he wants to save his skin in “hindu" India..?? let's see who knows more about Indian Muslims... Pakistanis or an Indian Muslim himself..?? and BTW guys, even after years of friendship, I still don't know whether he's a shia or sunni or Ahmed etc and he still doesn't know whether I'm a brahmin, or rajput or dalit etc etc.. I'll ask him that too.. OK ^_^

At first, Pakistan should refrain themselves, instead of wasting their money in waste policies :
* They should leave developing army infrastructure and increase economic Infrastructure
*They should compete with India in economic and research growth like Space, Infrastructure, education
* An Information for all, India had its many top chaired people was Muslims (Abdul Kalam, Azaruddin etc)
* Strict action against all terrorist groups in Pakistan to welcome more foreign investments
* focus on improvement for pakistan people not on pakistan army
* Instead of baming India, join hands with it and make Asia a challenge for Europe.

CEASEFIRE MUST BE STOPPED. INDIA ALWAYS RESPECT PAKISTAN AS A YOUNGER BROTHER. EVERY TIME. I WANT A BEAUTIFUL PEACE BETWEEN IND AND PAK. PEOPLE OF INDIA AND PAKISTAN ARE INNOCENT AND THEY HAVE NO INDULGED IN THIS CEASEFIRE SO WHY BOTH COUNTRIES SHOULD PAY FOR THIS. MY ADVICE TO PAKISTAN IS WATCH INTERNAL MATTER'S INSTEAD OF INTERNATIONAL MATTERS.
JAI HIND :-)
