Pak Rangers team in India for border talks with BSF

November 08, 2017 22:07

A high-level delegation of Pakistan Rangers arrived in India today to hold talks with the BSF on a host of issues, official sources said.

The talks come in the backdrop of strained ties between the two countries with a number of incidents of ceasefire violations and killings of civilians and troops.

The 19-member Pakistani delegation is led by the Director General of the Rangers (Sindh) Major General Muhammad Saeed while the Indian side will be headed by Border Security Force chief K K Sharma.

The Pakistani delegation, also comprising officials from their Interior (home) ministry and anti-narcotics force, is expected to return on November 10.

The last time the two sides met was in July last year when the BSF delegation led by D G Sharma travelled to Lahore for the bi-annual talks.
