One Border Security Force (BSF) trooper was killed and seven others, including four army soldiers and three BSF troopers, were injured on Monday in Pakistan firing on the Line of Control in Rajouri district.
"Pakistan Army resorted to unprovoked firing and shelling in Manjakot sector of Rajouri district after midnight," a senior BSF official said here.
The army said four of its soldiers were also injured in another ceasefire violation by the Pakistan Army during the night in Naushera sector of the same district.
The Indian Army has retaliated at both of these places and heavy shelling is still underway at these places.
