Border Security Force (BSF) Director General D.K. Pathak (L) and Pakistan Rangers Director General Maj. Gen Umar Farooq Burki shake hands as they exchange copies of the joint accord at the BSF headquarters in New Delhi on Saturday.

The two sides agree to stop ceasefire violations along the International Border.
India and Pakistan on Saturday agreed to jointly resolve sensitive issues like ceasefire violations and cross-border infiltration through exchange of information, including via e-mail and over the telephone.

At the conclusion of bilateral DG-level border talks, the two sides also inked some new confidence building measures (CBMs) and signed a joint record of discussions which emphasised the need to ensure security and well-being of their border populations.

The two sides, sources said, also agreed to stop ceasefire violations along the International Border (IB) “through enhanced communication via multiple modes at all possible levels.”

The chiefs of the Border Security Force and Pakistan Rangers had led the dialogue and both sides maintained that it was held in a very cordial and smooth manner and all the issues concerning the two countries along the Indo-Pak border were taken up and addressed.

The two border guarding forces decided to initiate new CBMs through initiation of coordinated patrolling in specific border areas.

“The Joint Record of Discussion charting a future route map for cooperation between the two border guarding forces was signed in the day. It was mutually agreed to hold the next talks in the first half of 2016 in Pakistan,” a BSF statement said after its DG D.K. Pathak and Rangers chief Maj. Gen. Umar Farooq Burki signed the documents.

“The talks ended on a optimistic note with both sides agreeing on constant endeavour to maintain peaceful and tranquil borders,” it added.

Sources said that both the forces, up to the level of Directors General, will exchange mobile numbers, e-mail IDs and fax numbers for quick and swift communication to resolve situations on a case-to-case basis.

Indo-Pak border CBMs to be implemented in next 15 days | Zee News

New Delhi: The latest set of confidence building measures (CBMs) agreed upon by BSF and Pak Rangers to put an end to ceasefire violations and firing along the border are expected to be put in place in the next fortnight.

The two sides, during their three-day DG-level talks here, had decided to enhance communication channels by getting in touch over the fastest modes of communication like mobile phone, fax and email and ensure that they alert the other side with a precautionary illumination fire if either side detects something suspicious on the International Border (IB).

"The 20-point joint record of discussions stipulates that the new CBMs and other points agreed upon shall be put into operation in the next 15 days.

"A number of these initiatives do not require the permission of governments on either side and can be implemented by the two forces on their own keeping in mind the top most agenda of peace, tranquillity and safety of border population," sources privy to the development said.

They said like in the case of exchange of mobile numbers, both the sides have to work out modalities as international calling is barred from border locations and hence mechanisms have to be put in place for this.

"Basic details like the colour of the warning flare shots that will be used by either side will have to be worked upon and communicated to each other within the next fortnight so that the decisions taken during the DG-level talks could be implemented on ground," they said.

The joint record was signed and endorsed yesterday here by the two chiefs-- Border Security Force DG D K Pathak and Pak Rangers Director General Maj Gen Umar Farooq Burki.
The Rangers delegation, after this official ceremony, crossed over to their side in the evening through the Attari-Wagah land border.

These bi-annual border talks had taken place almost after a break of two years as relations between the two neighbours came under strain due to a host of issues.

As part of efforts to bring peace on the border, India and Pakistan had yesterday also decided to put a complete ban on firing of mortar shells along the IB in Jammu and Kashmir which has claimed the lives of several civilians and damaged their houses.

The outcome of the talks, which both the sides said were held in a "cordial and constructive atmosphere", also endorsed a CBM that in case either side notices suspicious movement along IB, they will fire precautionary illumination shots to alert the counterpart that the forthcoming fire is aimed at the intruder and not at them.

Home Minister Rajnath Singh has said
"India always wants good friendly relations with its neighbours and continues with its policy of not disturbing anyone. But if someone fires at us first, we will not count the retaliatory bullets. Chhedenge nahi, par chhodenge bhi nahi (will not disturb anyone, but if disturbed, then won't spare anyone)," Singh said.
