Delhi,
\nFive days after the sudden announcement to maintain ceasefire along the border in Jammu and Kashmir, India and Pakistan are back to accusing each other and firing across the contentious divide.<\/p>\n
Islamabad on Monday reminded there was \u201cno space\u201d for war between \u201cnuclear powers\u201d even as officials of Pakistan Rangers and Border Security Force (BSF) conducted a flag meeting at the \u201coctroi\u201d post along the International Border.<\/p>\n
In Rawalpindi, Maj Gen Asif Ghafoor Director General of the Inter-Services Public Relations, the media wing of the Pakistan armed forces, telecast his press conference live on Twitter. \u201cWe are two nuclear powers and there is no space for war,\u201d he said, reminding about the nuclear arsenal.<\/p>\n
The Arms Control Association, a US-based think-tank, cites the US State Department to claim that Pakistan has 140 nuclear warheads and India 130.<\/p>\n
Since Sunday night, the Pakistan army has fired ammunition into India at two separate locations \u2014 Naushera and Akhnoor.<\/p>\n
This comes just two days after the Pakistan Rangers fired at Pargwal, a small township in Akhnoor sector, near Jammu. Two BSF men were killed.<\/p>\n
The weekly telephonic interaction between officials of the military operations of the two countries is scheduled for Tuesday where India is likely to raise several issues concerning the past five days.<\/p>\n
On May 29, the two sides had agreed to maintain sanctity of the November 2003 agreed upon ceasefire.<\/p>\n
In Rawalpindi, Maj Gen Ghafoor said: \u201cThe DGMO (Director General Military Operations) has given an undertaking to his Indian counterpart about respecting the ceasefire.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
