Jammu, Nov. 20 (TNS): Over 50 residents of Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) travelled by a cross-LoC bus to reach occupied Jammu and Kashmir’s Poonch district on Monday, Indian media quoting officials reported on Monday.
The bus service had on November 6 resumed operations after remaining suspended for nearly four months owing to heavy shelling by Indian troops along the Line of Control (LoC) in Poonch district.
“The cross-LoC bus plied as per schedule. 52AJK residents arrived in Poonch while 14 AJK residents returned from IOK side after spending time with their relatives,” the officials said.
Nearly 74 PoK residents have availed the facility to visit India in the past two weeks, they said, adding the service was used notwithstanding the ceasefire violations by the Pakistan army last week.

Indian troops had targeted forward areas along the LoC in Poonch district for from November 15 to 18, casting a shadow of uncertainty on the cross-LoC trade and travel.
The bus service was started along the Srinagar- Muzaffarabad road in April 2005 and the Poonch-Rawalakot route on June 20, 2006, to facilitate trade and travel between occupied Jammu and Kashmir and AJK.
The trade between the two parts of Kashmir started in October 2008 on the barter system.
