ISLAMABAD: Defence Minister Khawaja Asif on Monday rejected the Indian allegations of Pakistani incursion at the Line of Control (LoC), terming them baseless.

In messages posted to Twitter, the federal minister termed the Indian allegations an attempt to ignite tensions for internal motives.

The defence minister said Pakistan was fully committed to peace at the LoC.

He said the Pakistan Army upholds the highest standards of professional conduct.
