RAWALPINDI: The Directors General Military Operations (DGMOs) of Pakistan and India on Wednesday spoke over the hotline on the situation on the Line of Control (LoC), a UN-monitored de facto border dividing Kashmir between India and Pakistan, military sources said.
The DGs were in contact following Tuesday's accusations that Pakistani troops were involved in the killing of five Indian soldiers in an attack on an army post in the disputed Kashmir region.
Reports of the attack came just as India and Pakistan were preparing to resume peace talks broken off since January when tensions rose following the beheading of an Indian soldier in a border clash.
Pakistan's DGMO Major General Ashfaq Nadeem said the accusations levelled against the country's soldiers were without foundation and utterly baseless, sources said.
Moreover, Pakistan also lodged a strong protest against Tuesday afternoon's "unprovoked firing by Indian troops" at the Pando Sector on LoC near Muzaffarabad.
Major General Nadeem moreover told his Indian counterpart that Pakistan wholeheartedly respected the ceasefire agreement with India.
On Tuesday, the Foreign Office also rejected allegations of Pakistan’s involvement as “baseless and unfounded”, saying the country’s was committed to its ceasefire promises and wanted to resume peace talks with India soon.
