Cross-LoC bus service resumes through Poonch

JAMMU: The Cross-LoC bus service resumed through Poonch district today after being suspended last week, despite the ongoing skirmishes along the Line of Control (LoC) and the India-Pak border.

            Nine people, including five Jammu and Kashmir residents, returned to India, while 20 used the service to go back to Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), a senior official said.

            Last week, on January 18, the weekly service was suspended after unprovoked firing by Pakistan that forced Indian troops to retaliate. (AGENCIES)
