PM’s diplomacy works, ceasefire violations lessen

Army chief Gen. Raheel Sharif to fully support the India-Pakistan peace initiative.

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s diplomacy and engagement with Pakistan seems to be working, and hardly any ceasefire violations by the Pakistan Army along the LoC have been reported from early November this year, sources said.

This indicates the Pakistan Army, for now, appears to be backing peace efforts between the two countries. It is also speculated the United States has put intense pressure on Pakistan Army chief Gen. Raheel Sharif to fully support the India-Pakistan peace initiative.

“From November 2 this year (2015), there were hardly any ceasefire violations by the Pakistan Army on the Line of Control,” sources said. There were about seven to eight ceasefire violations; but hardly violations by the Pakistan Army on the LoC from November.
