Pakistan on Thursday rejected Indian concerns regarding movement of terrorists along the Line of Control (LoC) while saying that the Indian army should share evidence regarding the same.

"Indian concerns on terrorists' movement along LOC were strongly rejected during the hotline. Indian Army asked to look inward, share evidence," tweeted Pakistan Army's media wing Inter-Services Public Relations' (ISPR) Director General Major General Asif Ghafoor.

His remarks followed a telephonic conversation on Thursday between Indian Director-General of Military Operations (DGMO) A.K. Bhatt with his Pakistani counterpart regarding the movement of terrorists along the Line of Control (LoC).

During the conversation, the Pakistani DGMO was informed about the repatriation of two nationals from the other side of the border apprehended in Uri, Jammu and Kashmir.

The duo will be repatriated through the Wagah border on March 10.
