Need all-party meeting to decide action against Pak: Shiv Sena

The Shiv Sena on Tuesday urged the Centre to convene an all-party meeting in the national capital to discuss the course of action against Pakistan in wake of the barbaric mutilation of Indian soldiers.

'Our farmers and soldiers are the ones whose situations are the worst in the country. If we will not make efforts to improve their condition, then there is no use of a government in the county. The condition of our country is getting worse and it is very unfortunate. It is needed to call the all-party meeting in Delhi to discuss the situation,' Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut told ANI.

Raut further asserted that such incidents are being repeated time and again, adding that India should take strong measure against Pakistan now.

'From the time our government has come into power, since then Pakistan has increased its barbaric acts. Even during the Congress regime we use to say that we will kill two people in return of one, but nothing happened,' he said.

Meanwhile, the last rites of Poonch hero, Naib Subedar Paramjit Singh was performed in his hometown Tarn Taran, Punjab and wreath laying ceremony of Head Constable Prem Sagar was concluded in capital.

Earlier on Monday, Pakistan's brutal Border Action Team (BAT) again mutilated the bodies of two Indian soldiers on Monday in Krishna Ghati sector along the Line of Control, where they had beheaded Lance Naik Hemraj in 2013.

The Indian Army confirmed the involvement of the BAT in the gruesome act beheading Indian soldier. The Pakistani soldiers along with their Border Action Team (BAT), which include trained border inhabitants, launched a joint attack.

They first fired rockets and followed this up with firing from automatic weapons, near Kranti Post located in Poonch's Krishna Ghati Sector around 8.30 a.m.

The Pakistanis then crossed the LoC, entered 200 meters into Indian territory, and attacked a joint patrol of the Army and Border Security Force (BSF), heading towards a nearby post.

It is the same Krishna Ghati sector where the Pakistani BAT had beheaded Lance Naik Hemraj and badly severed the head of Lance Naik Sudhakar Singh of 13 Rajputana Rifles, on January 8, 2013.
