Pakistan on Friday said it was deeply concerned about reports of Indian troop movements along its borders that it said would aggravate a tense situation and oblige Islamabad to take appropriate countermeasures. A foreign office spokesman expressed ''deep concern'' over what he called reports of massive troop movements by India along the Pakistan border in the Sindh-Rajasthan sector, in the Chenab-Ravi corridor and along the line of control in Kashmir.
''The Indian troop movements, which follow provocative and threatening statements by Indian leadership, would aggravate an already tense situation in the region,'' a foreign ministry statement quoted the spokesman as saying.
''He added that naturally Pakistan would be obliged to take all appropriate counter measures,'' said the statement issued just hours after India said it would withdraw its High Commissioner after an attack by guerrillas last week on its Parliament.
