Jammu: The BSF and Pak Rangers on Thursday held a flag meeting along the International Border (IB) here during which the Indian side registered its "strong" protest on the recent spate of unprovoked firing incidents, asserting that such acts were unacceptable and would "not be tolerated".
The Border Security Force said the sector commander-level meeting took place in Suchetgarh area of the border "on the request" of the Pakistani side.
A similar request by the Indian side was "not responded to" by the Rangers a few days back, official sources had said.
The meeting was the first between the two sides since "heavy shelling and firing was experienced on the IB during the last week".
