Pak violates ceasefire twice ahead of Modi's Siachen visit
Srinagar, Oct 23 (IBNS): Ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to the Siachen Glacier, Pakistan troopers fired at the Border Security Force (BSF) post with small arms in Ramgarh sector of Jammu and Kashmir, reports said.
According to the BSF, no damage has been made in the ceasefire that took place on Diwali day.
There have been a series of ceasefire incidents at the border recently.
In the wake of the series of ceasefire violation, the Indian forces have decided to skip the traditional exchange of Diwali sweets with their Pakistani counterparts at the Attari border, said reports.
The exchange of sweets at the border during festivals is an age-old tradition.
In fact the recent incident came ahead of Modi's visit to the Siachen Glacier on Thursday.
