ISLAMABAD: Foreign Minister (FM) Shah Mahmood Qureshi has welcomed the agreement of strict observance of the ceasefire agreement between Pakistan and India along the Line of Control (LoC) and other sectors, ARY News reported on Thursday.
Exclusively talking to ARY News, FM Qureshi termed the development as a positive omen and urged India to strictly follow the ceasefire agreement.
He said that Pakistan has been highlighting the ceasefire violations at all international forums from the Indian side, which has claimed the lives of many innocent people. “It is a positive development if India sticks to it.”
