ISLAMABAD: Ceasing of hostilities between India and Pakistan along the Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu and Kashmir must be on Indian terms, Indian Army Chief Bipin Rawat on Friday said, noting that Pakistani forces have been feeling the "pain" of Indian Army's offensive along the border.
He alluded to a rise in cross-border firing by India as part of a larger strategy to put pressure on Pakistan, reported international media.
"So, we have raised the ante by resorting to cross border firing which is leading to violations of ceasefire.
"Earlier, the burden was only on us to man the border and remain alert and now the Pakistan Army is facing the same pain. They also have to now remain alert on the border," the Indian army chief said.
Rawat said, “Pakistani posts supporting infiltrators must be punished” and asserted that “the increase in the ceasefire violations had compelled Pakistan to deploy more forces along the Line of Control, which was earlier in the hinterland or peace postings.” Recalling the time when borders were relatively calm and the ceasefire agreement was not being violated, Rawat said, “Despite this the infiltration continued and there was no pressure on the Pakistani Army which aided and abetted infiltration across the LoC.”
