NEW DELHI: India has suspended the trade across the Line of Control (LoC) with Pakistan from Friday after probe agencies found the route was being “misused” by elements from the neighbouring country to smuggle illegal weapons, drugs and fake currency, a Government order said Thursday.
It said a stricter regulatory and enforcement mechanism is being worked and the issue of the reopening the trade routes will be revisited once they are implemented.
The Union Home Ministry order stated that it has been “decided by the Government of India to suspend the LoC trade at Salamabad and Chakkan-da-Bagh in Jammu and Kashmir”. (AGENCIES)
