On one hand, Pakistan tries to portray itself as the torchbearers of peace by saying how the country does not want war, on the other hand, Pakistan continues the ceasefire violations at the LoC.

As per reports, the at around 3 am on Monday morning, Pakistan violated ceasefire in Akhnoor sector which was effectively retaliated by the Indian Army. The firing eventually stopped at 6:30 am. Earlier on Sunday, Pakistan had violated ceasefire along the LoC in Srinagar’s Nowshera sector in Jammu and Kashmir. On Sunday, too, the shelling from across the border reportedly started at around 3 am. Prior to that, Pakistani troops had violated ceasefire along the LoC at Rajouri district in Jammu and Kashmir.
In fact, just hours after the ‘peace’ initiative of the release of Wing Commander Abhinandan, Pakistan killed civilians owing to ceasefire violations in Poonch, Kashmir. A 9-month-old baby and a 5-year-old child, siblings and their mother were killed in the shelling.
The rampant ceasefire violations indicate that the ‘peace gesture’ of returning Wing Commander Abhinandan to India was extremely farcical. And that he was returned only due to international conventions and the pressure built on them by the Indian government. While Pakistani Ministers are floating Imran Khan as a nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize, his army is busy killing children and infants.
