Neighbouring nation has complained to UN expressing severe reservations over India building a wall along the disputed territory of J&K occupied by India
The planned wall, according to Pakistan, was to convert the IB “into a quasi international border”. India did not immediately react directly to the allegation on the alleged wall plan but described the contents of two letters written by Lodhi on September 4 and 9 as “contradictory”.
India would respond to these claims “at the appropriate time”, External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Vikas Swarup said. Defence expert Major General (retired) S R Sinho on Friday said that a wall constructed along the LoC will be a safe proposal as it will reduce the entry of terrorists from Pakistan’s side to India.
“We have constructed fencing, spending crores and lakhs of rupees on our side of the border, Pakistan has no business to talk about it. They cannot stop it. We can do anything we like on our side of the border,” he added.
