Two porters were killed and two jawans injured today when Pakistani troops, violating the seven-year-old cease fire along the Line of Control (LoC), fired on Indian positions at Machhil sector in Jammu and Kashmir, a defence spokesman said.

Pakistani troops opened fire on Indian posts and positions in Machhil sector, 140 km from here, around 7.30am without any provocation, defence spokesperson Lt Col JS Brar told PTI.

Two porters were killed on the spot and two army jawans injured in the firing, he said.

In 2003, India and Pakistan had announced a cease fire on the LoC.

The incident comes ahead of Indo-Pakistan foreign secretary-level talks and Union home minister P Chidambaram's visit to Islamabad for the SAARC interior minister's Conference.
