The ISPR said that the quadcopter had intruded 850 metres on Pakistan’s territory along the de facto border between the two nuclear-armed nations. “The quadcopter had intruded 850 meters on Pakistan’s side of the #LOC. This is 9th Indian quadcopter shot down by Pakistan Army troops this year,” it added.
Earlier, Pakistan renounced the granting of domicile certificates to Indian citizens in Muslim-majority Jammu and Kashmir, portraying it as an attempt to change the demographic composition of the region.
As many as 25,000 people have been awarded domicile certificates since New Delhi revoked the controversial bill in May which granted autonomous status to Jammu and Kashmir.
Eligible non-locals, along with those who have lived in Jammu and Kashmir for 15 years, or studied for seven years and appeared in class 10th or 12th examinations in a local school, can apply for the certificate under the new law.
“Pakistan categorically rejects the grant of domicile certificates of Indian occupied Jammu & Kashmir (IOJ&K) by the Indian authorities to reportedly 25,000 Indian nationals,” said a statement by Pakistan’s foreign ministry.
