Despite tensions, India and Pakistan to hold DG-level talks

According to sources, the meeting will take place on July 27-28.

New Delhi: Despite political tensions between the two neighbours over the Kashmir issue, the border-guarding forces of India and Pakistan will hold their bi-annual DG-level talks on issues related to ceasefire violations, infiltration and digging of illegal tunnels along the international border this week in Lahore.

According to sources, the meeting will take place on July 27-28 and senior officials from Delhi, led by BSF director-general K.K. Sharma, will leave for Pakistan on Monday.

The other members of the 22-member Indian delegation will cross over from the Attari-Wagah land border at Amritsar. The last such meeting was held here in September 2015.

Keep off our children, says Mufti
Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister, Mehbooba Mufti, on Sunday asked Pakistan ‘Don’t do unto us what you don’t want others to do unto you’. She asked Pakistan “Hamare bachon ko kiyon oksato ho (why do you instigate our children)”. She said, “Pakistan is using bombs, drones and much more to eradicate the menace from her soil.”
