Amritsar (PTI): Three rockets were fired from the Pakistan side of the border with two of them landing inside in as many Indian villages, injuring a youth besides triggering panic among villagers, a top BSF official said on Sunday.

"Last night around 9.50 pm, three rockets were fired from the Pakistan side, out of which two landed in Dhandae and Baherwal villages close to the Attari international border. A youth was injured in the incident," BSF's Inspector General (Punjab Frontier), Himmat Singh told PTI over phone.

Mr. Singh said one rocket fell and exploded on the Pak side of the International Border. The incident had also triggered panic among the border residents.

Soon after the incident, senior officials of BSF, including DIG Mohammed Aqeel, army and police visited the spot.

Asked if it could be the handiwork of Pak-based terror groups, Mr. Singh said, "At the moment, we cannot confirm this though such a possibility cannot be ruled out.

"We held the commandant-level meeting late last night with Pakistani Rangers and conveyed our strong protest. They have assured us that they will fully investigate the matter and share the details with us."

A 24-year-old youth, Dilbagh Singh (24), of Dhandae village, who was working on his fields, received splinter injuries. The rocket had also created a 10-ft-wide crater.

Asked from what distance could the rockets have been fired, Mr. Singh said this could be confirmed only after the investigations.

The BSF IG also said the force had also taken additional measures to strengthen security of visitors who flocked to the Attari border in large numbers to witness the Beating Retreat ceremony in the evening.

BSF sources said a heavy contingent of Army and BSF were monitoring the situation since Saturday night.

Various army teams were already on the spot to gather splinters of the two rockets that exploded on this side of the border.

The BSF sources said the force has collected some pieces of the fired objects from Dhandae.

Dhandae is a small village with only about 200 families and none of them came out of their houses even in late morning after the rocket explosions.

Dilbagh Singh, who was a victim and an eyewitness as well, said the rocket was fired from the Pakistani side and fell on his irrigated paddy field, a portion of which was damaged.

Chandigarh, July 4: There was considerable tension on the India-Pakistan border just a few hundred metres from the Attari-Wagah joint checkpost after BSF personnel shot dead a Pakistan national who attempted to illegally cross the international border a little before sunset on Saturday.

"A man was spotted running towards the Indian side at Roranwala village. Our men warned him against crossing the Zero Line several times. When he refused to pay heed, they opened fire," BSF officials told this newspaper.

The Pakistani, who had no identification papers on his body, was young. The BSF battalion commander called a flag meeting with his Pakistan Rangers counterpart. Sources said the Rangers rejected suggestions that the dead man was "Pakistani". [linked image] His body was moved to a government hospital in Amritsar.
