Islamabad: Pakistan has called upon India to allow the UN Military Observers Group to investigate recent ceasefire violations on the line of control. At her weekly media briefing in Islamabad Friday, Foreign Office spokesperson Tasnim Aslam said that Pakistan some days back took the UN Military Observers Group in Pakistan and India (UNMOGIP) to its side of the Line of Control and working boundary to show them the damage and pattern of fire carried out by the Indian side.
The observers, she said, would have compiled a report and sent to the UN as per the practice. She said the UNMOGIP is a neutral observer and the best option for India is to allow the observers to visit the Line of Control on its side to assess the situation. Its investigation and recommendations should be acceptable to India.
Responding to a volley of questions regarding escalation of situation on the Line of Control and working boundary, the Foreign Office spokesperson categorically stated that Pakistan is only responding to the situation. She said Pakistan has neither started violations of the ceasefire nor did it escalate the situation.
