We retaliated effectively which led to damage on that (Pakistan) side. BSF never starts it but when they do, we make sure we take strong action. Martyrdom of Head Constable A Suresh will not go in vain: KK Sharma, DG BSF on ceasefire violation by Pakistan #JammuAndKashmir pic.twitter.com/QEaSijhEph
