Foreign Office spokesperson Dr Muhammad Faisal also said Indian Embassy has yet not responded to offer made by DG Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).

Dr Faisal in a tweet said it indicates that they have no grounds to support false claim by their COAS. He added that we expect them to respond soon.

It is worth mentioning here that Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Director General Major General Asif Ghafoor had termed Indian army chief’s claim of destroying three camps in Azad Jammu and Kashmir as “disappointing.”

In his message on twitter, DG ISPR said: "Indian COAS’ statement claiming destruction of 3 alleged camps in AJK is disappointing as he holds a very responsible appointment. There are no camps let alone targeting those. Indian Embassy in Pakistan is welcome to take any foreign diplomat / media to ‘prove’ it on ground."

DG ISPR said: "The propensity of false claims by senior Indian military leadership especially since Pulwama incident is detrimental to peace in the region. Such false claims by Indian Army are being made to suit vested domestic interests. This is against professional military ethos."

Earlier, Pakistan decided to take all foreign diplomats in Islamabad to LoC after India alleged that it destroyed training camps along the border.

Sources said the diplomats would be brought to Jura,Shah Kot and Nousheri sector of LoC. Indian envoy in Pakistan has also been invited to visit the site alongside diplomats.

On the other hand, Pakistan summoned Indian envoy to Foreign Office and demanded proves of alleged Indian attack. Pakistan warned India that it will have to bear severe consequences if it remained stuck to such violations.
