Pakistan has been repeatedly stooping to a new low by targeting Indian Army soldiers. This incident has come when the wounds of Naib Subedar Paramjeet Singh and the BSF's Head Constable Prem Sagar’s death are still afresh.

The most shocking part if, In spite of continuous attacks, Pakistan has been denying killing and mutilation of Indian soldiers.

Refuting Pakistan’s claim of not committing the act, Defence Minister Arun Jaitley had also asserted that such an act where crossing of borders are involved cannot be committed without an involvement of the Pakistan Army.
