While the tension between the nuclear-armed nations India and Pakistan persists, Pakistan said today that India has deployed over 700,000 troops to suppress the voice of people in Kashmir, which is a disputed territory between the two countries.
Narrating the sequence of events around the Pulwama terror attack in which more than 40 CRPF (Central Reserve Police Force) men died, Pakistan said that India has failed to address the Kashmiris’ demand for self-determination.

In a couple of tweets from the official Twitter account of Pakistan Government, Pakistan said that immediately after the Pulwama attack, India started leveling unsubstantiated allegations on Pakistan while Pakistan has categorically denied its involvement.
According to the statement, the Prime Minister (PM) of Pakistan Imran Khan asked his Indian counterpart PM Narendra Modi to “give peace a chance,” but Indian warplanes violated the Line of Control (LoC) on February 26 and committed unprovoked aggression against Pakistan.

In response, Pakistan shot down two Indian fighter planes and launched airstrikes in the Indian Occupied Kashmir (IOK). Pakistan also had captured an Indian pilot who was sent back to India on Friday.
