No construction activity along Indo-Pak border: Pak

Pakistan has denied the allegation made by an Indian minister that the former was involved in construction activity on international borders.

No abnormal activity along the border from Pakistan side, a Pakistani defence official reportedly said.

Responding to media reports referring to a statement by Indian Minister of State for Home Ragupathy in the LoK Sabha stating that Pakistan was engaged in construction of pill boxes, bunkers, new posts, observation towers and defence bunds along the international border, the unnamed official said that no such activity was going on the Pakistani side of the international border.

Drawing attention to other reports, he said that the Indian Army had established new posts very close to the border and that the movement of Indian troops along the Line of Control had intensified and these aspects had been brought to the notice of the Indian Director General Military Operations.

He reiterated that despite these reports Pakistan continue to exercise restraint and maintain normal peace time deployment with no extraordinary reconstruction works as reported other than the routine maintenance.
