Senior Indian and Pakistani military officials talked over hotline Tuesday in the wake of the heavy cross border firing between the two countries which killed civilians on both sides.
"It was a functional DGMO (director general of military operations) -level talk. The talk was routine," army sources said.
Pakistan has been indulging in unprecedented targeting of civilian habitations since Oct 6. Eight people have been killed and 62 injured in the shelling so far.
There had been an overnight calm on the international border and the LoC Sunday, but Pakistan violated the ceasefire again Monday afternoon, injuring a woman on the Indian side.
Military officials in Pakistan said the two sides discussed "ways to reduce tension along their border", according to a media report.
