LAHORE, April 14: The Pakistan Rangers and Indian Border Security Force have agreed to continue efforts to improve working relations, increase joint patrolling and not to allow the unresolved issues tsso undermine the achievements.

The agreement was reached at the conclusion of a three-day bi-annual meeting of the Pakistan Rangers and BSF officers at the Rangers headquarters here on Friday. The BSF delegation returned home via Wagah in the evening.

Briefing journalists after the meeting, Pakistan Rangers’ Punjab Director General Maj-Gen Husain Mehdi and BSF Inspector General Sh.N.P.S. Aulakh said no agreement could be reached on the status of Line of Control in Kashmir.

The Indian delegation was of the view that the LoC was an international border and could be treated as working boundary. Pakistan opposed the view because Kashmir was the core issue of dispute between India and Pakistan.
