Srinagar: It was business as usual on Srinagar-Muzaffarabad road Tuesday as 70 trucks crossed the LoC between Jammu and Kashmir and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) at Kaman Post, hours after IAF pounded Jaish-e-Mohammad terror camps in the neighbouring country.
Thirty five trucks carrying goods from Salamabad Trade Facilitation Centre at Uri entered PoK as part of the cross-Line of Control trade between the divided parts of the state, local officials said.
They informed that an equal number of trucks arrived from the other side at the trade facilitation centre on Indian territory.
The exchange of goods, which is held on barter basis, takes place from Tuesday to Friday every week. The trade on Srinagar-Muzaffarabad road started in October 2008 as a confidence building measure as part of the composite Indo-Pak dialogue.
The trade has been suspended several times in the past whenever there has been any tension between the two countries like in the aftermath of 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks.
