Pakistan, India open checkpoint of Line of Control (Reuters) Updated: 2005-11-07 13:57
Pakistani army officers and an Indian army
officer (L) talk over the Line of Control (LoC) in Titrinote,
Pakistan-administered Kashmir, about 180-km (111.8 miles) east of
Islamabad, November 7, 2005. Pakistan and India open one checkpoint of the
LoC on Monday between Pakistan-administered Kashmir's Titrinote and
Indian-administered Kashmiri's Poonch. The Pakistani proposal to open five
points on the old rivals' disputed border in Kashmir appears more of a
symbolic gesture of friendship, rather than something that will make a big
difference for efforts to bring relief to
survivors.[Reuters] |
