"This year's Independence day celebrations are in the name of Kashmir's (future) independence." said, Abdul Basit, Pakistan's high commissioner to Delhi said on Saturday according to reports. "Struggle for independence will continue till Kashmir gets freedom. Sacrifice of the people of Kashmir will not go in vain," he said during his trip to Delhi. India summoned Basit on 9 August amid growing tension between the two nations over the violence in Kashmir.
Foreign Secretary S Jaishankar called Basit to his office and lodged a strong protest over the issue as he made a specific reference to LeT terrorist and Pakistan national Bahadur Ali, who was captured recently in North Kashmir during an encounter. Thislatest provocation comes after Pakistan last week proposed foreign secretary-level talks on Kashmir and the ongoing unrest there, an issue India described as irrelevant to any Indo-Pak dialogue.
Pakistani troops resorted to unprovoked firing on Indian side along the Line of Control in Shahpu Kandi area of the border Poonch district. Commemorating the 70th Independence Day of Pakistan, search giant has posted a doodle which is inspired by the ancient ruins of Mohenjodaro. Situated to the west of the Indus River in the Sindh Province of Pakistan, the ruins make up what archeologists called the most advanced civilisation of the ancient Indus Valley. Today's doodle is exclusive to the Pakistan homepage.
