Islamabad: Pakistan has accused India of resorting to massive troops mobilisation in the Drass-Kargil sectors of the Line of Control (LoC) and cautioned that any operations by Indian troops in the area could adversely affect the recent thaw in the relations between the two countries.

"India is preparing for a military action in Drass-Kargil sector," a report in the official news agency APP said on August 16 night quoting well-placed intelligence sources.

"There is an increased movement of troops and other related activity, especially in the Drass area, it has been learnt from the reports received from the Indian-held Kashmir," the Agency reported alleging that restrictions were being imposed on movements of civilians in the Drass area.

"The activities indicate preparation of a large-scale operation which, if executed, will adversely impact on the current thaw in the Indo-Pak relations and is bound to draw serious retaliation," it said.

Pakistan's Defence officials were not immediately available for comment.
