PM Narendra Modi won't let India down against Pakistan: HM Rajnath Singh New Delhi: Hardening his stand on the ceasefire violations by Pakistan along the International Border in Jammu and kashmir, Home Minister Rajnath Singh said that the Border Security Forces are givng a befitting reply to the neighbours for the firing.

He also maintained that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is keeping a close eye on the situation on the border. "The PM doesn't need to say anything because our BSF jawans are giving a befitting reply. He is constantly aware about what is happening and has an eye on it," Singh said adding that the government is satisfied with the response by BSF to ceasefire violation by Pakistan.

Firing from Pakistan continued on Thursday for the fourth straight day in all seven sectors along the International Border. Two Indian women have been killed in overnight shelling that took place on Thursday by Pakistani forces along the International Border in Jammu and Kashmir.

Pakistan rangers targetted 60 BSF outposts and over 80 villages in fresh mortar shelling and firing in Jammu, Samba and Kathua districts along the International Border.

According to sources, the PM has given the Army and Border Security Force a free hand to tackle ceasefire violations by Pakistani troops. A team under National Security Advidor (NSA) Ajit Doval is currently monitoring the situation.

"The PM has told the NSA that there is no question of succumbing to Pakistan. The PM said that there will be no talks with the Pakistan border forces till firing stops," sources said.

There has been no end to the ceasefire violations by Pakistan in the month of October and villagers have been advised to stay indoors.
