Pakistan Foreign Office rejects Indian’s Army Chief statement

imgPakistani Foreign Office on Thursday rejected a statement issued by Indian army chief General Bikram Singh and declared it as unfortunate and provocative, said an official press release.

The Foreign Office spokesperson, Tasnim Aslam in a weekly media briefing in Islamabad said that such remarks could lead to deterioration of ties between the two countries.

The Indian Army Chief accused Pakistan of breaching the ceasefire along the Line of Control (LoC). General Singh said that India was not bound to follow the rules if Pakistan was up to breaking them.

Earlier on Monday, a press release by the media wing of Pakistan military, Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) quoted the DG ISPR Major General Asim Bajwa as saying that Pakistan Army respects the ceasefire agreement in letter and spirit.
