India accuses Pakistan at border India accuses Pakistan at border
(about 7 hours later)
India says two of its border guards have been injured after Pakistani soldiers opened fire on them in Indian-administered Kashmir. India says it is to protest to Pakistan after two of its border guards were injured in a shooting incident near the international border in Kashmir.
An official alleged Pakistani soldiers were providing cover to militants trying to cross into Indian territory. Indian security officials said their patrols were shot at from across the border, possibly by Pakistani troops.
There has been no reaction to the incident as yet by Pakistan. Pakistan angrily denied its soldiers had breached a ceasefire, saying Indian troops opened fire first.
The Indian official said it was the first violation of the ceasefire between India and Pakistan since it came into force in 2003. The truce came into force in 2003 ahead of peace moves. The rivals have fought three wars, two of them over Kashmir.
The two nuclear countries have fought three wars, two of them over Kashmir, since 1947. 'Ludicrous'
An official of India's Border Security Force told the BBC that Pakistani soldiers opened fire early on Wednesday after Indian forces challenged a group of militants trying to cross into Indian-administered Kashmir. An Indian border security official said gunfire came first from the Pakistani side, although he said it was not clear whether the shots were fired by soldiers or militants.
Indian soldiers are said to have returned the fire, but two of its soldiers were wounded in the exchange. Indian officials say Islamic militants fighting Indian rule in Kashmir continue to sneak across from the Pakistani side of the divided region, despite the three-year-old ceasefire. Pakistan denies this.
India said its troops returned fire in the incident, but two of its soldiers were wounded in the exchange.
A Pakistan army statement called the allegations "fabricated and ludicrous". It said Pakistani border guards did not return fire.

In the past India has blamed Pakistan for supporting militants fighting Indian forces in Kashmir - an allegation it denies. The two countries have accused each other of violating the ceasefire on a couple of occasions since it came into force, but the peace process has been unaffected.
The BBC's Barbara Plett in Islamabad says many diplomats and analysts there believe that President Pervez Musharraf has taken significant steps to stop the jihadis.
But they say it is difficult for him to completely dismantle the militant infrastructure without a resolution of the Kashmir dispute.
