Termed as ‘Stratigical Assets of Nation’ on 12 September 2017 by then Home Minister of India Rajnath Singh when thousands of people from villages near Line of Control (LoC) migrated to Nowshera town in Rajouri following cross border shelling, the civil population living along LoC is having a sigh of relief following the ceasefire agreement between India and Pakistan this year.
Over the years, the civilians not only face loss of the lives, damages in residential and commercial structures but also face shortage of food like maize and wheat due to poor agriculture production as most of the people cannot venture in their own fields due to continuous shelling.www.parkviewortho.com/wp-content/languages/new/levitra.html
However, the ceasefire agreement between both the armies that came into force from February 25 this year has not only brought peace at LoC but is also reviving the agriculture sector in areas along LoC.
“After the ceasefire, we are now able to move freely in agriculture fields to carry out our work,” said Parshotam Lal, a village farmer from Saryah village of Nowshera sector.
He said that from the past few months farmers at LoC are able to give their best in agriculture fields without any fear.
“Although it is not recorded, we have an increase in maize crop this year and we expect the same in wheat crop also which shall be harvested in the month of April next year,” said another farmer Romesh Chander.
“Now a day’s agriculture fields at LoC are in full bloom and this is all due to prevailing peace,” Chander said. “Every citizen wants such peace to prevail”—(KNO)
