Indo-Pak flag meeting today; trade, travel still on hold


Finally, the Pakistan army, which had been violating the truce deal in the Krishna Ghati sector of Poonch district, has agreed for the much-awaited flag meeting, which will be held at Chakan-da-Bagh tomorrow.
Follow up:

“We received a response via hotline today wherein the Pakistan Army has agreed to a flag meeting to be held at Chakan-da-Bagh in Poonch district at 11 am tomorrow,” the Jammu-based Defence PRO, Col RK Palta, told The Tribune.

Colonel Palta disclosed that it would be a Brigade Commander-level meeting between the two armies.

The Defence Ministry official also stated that there had been no fresh cross-LoC firing by Pak troops in the KG sector.

On June 19, the Army had sent a hotline message to the Pakistan army seeking a Brigade Commander-level flag meeting to discuss the increasing incidents of firing and ceasefire violations in the KG sector. “The situation along the LoC in the KG sector is peaceful but tense. Since the Pakistan army has agreed to the flag meeting, we will strongly raise the matters of ceasefire violations and trans-LoC firing tomorrow,” said a senior Army officer. The Indian side would be represented by the Poonch Brigade Commander, he added.

Besides ceasefire violations and cross-LoC firing, we are also going to take up the issue of forest fires, which start from across the LoC and then spread to our area resulting in explosions of mines, said the officer.

Since June 13, when Pakistani troops started pounding Indian forward posts, two soldiers — Lance Naik Harvinder Singh and BSF jawan PK Mishra — were killed while five others were injured, two of them critically.

“Though there had been instances of ceasefire violations by Pakistani troops in the past but never before did they target Indian posts and our soldiers,” said the officer.

On June 16, the Pakistan army had refused to attend a commandant-level flag meeting in Chakan-da-Bagh without assigning any reason. Meanwhile, the trans-LoC trade and travel via Chakan-da-Bagh remains suspended since June 14 and June 18, respectively.

“This morning again my counterpart in Rawalakote told me that unless the flag meeting took place between the two armies, trade and travel would remain suspended,” said custodian of the cross-LoC trade and travel Abdul Hamid.
