Pakistan's consistent ceasefire violation reflects desperation: Security experts

Security expert Alok Bansal said on Monday that Pakistan's repeated violation of the November 2003 ceasefire agreement reflects its growing desperation.

"I have said this earlier also that Pakistan's action reflects desperation now. Winters are about to come, and due to the floods, they are not able to infiltrate." Bansal said. "Indian Army has worked a lot during floods that makes the common man there to have faith in them more. Indian Army is giving them a strong answer. Our army should give an answer to their army; politics should not be involved in this. If four- five people have died that doesn't mean that our army is not doing anything."

"Since the Modi Government has been made, we have got international fame, which Pakistan doesn't like. They are trying to do something that will create a bad impression of Modi's Government," Bansal said. According to the PRO (Defense), after the R S Pura ceasefire violation by Pakistan, unprovoked firing is going on in the B G Sector area of Poonch.

Another security expert, Praful Bakshi, said, "Four civilians have been killed and this ceasefire violation is not a new thing. This happens every year. Pakistan does it to divert the minds," Bakshi said. "Secondly, they infiltrate terrorist elements because after sometime snowfall will not let them do this. We should always order our army that continuous counter fire should happen from our side. We have to create pressure on them."

Mortars and automatics have been fired by Pakistan, and India's troops have been responding to them equally.
