India on Saturday summoned the Pakistani Diplomat to register a strong protest over the heavy shelling by Pakistani forces on multiple sectors along the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir on Friday that left at least nine people dead.
In a statement, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said India also condemned, in the strongest terms, the deliberate targeting of innocent civilians by Pakistani forces, saying it was highly deplorable that Pakistan chose a festive occasion in India to disrupt peace and perpetrate violence in Jammu and Kashmir through coordinated firing along the LoC.
