The protests were registered by BSF with Chinab Rangers at company commanders' meeting at Tent Post in Kana Chak area of the district.

The company commander of BSF has shown them proofs of infiltration attempts, firing and grenade blast marks, they said.

Pakistan commanders, however, termed them as handiwork of militants and promised to probe into the incident, they said adding that BSF has expressed concerns over such incidents.

Three to four militants tried to enter into Indian territory under the cover of Pak firing in Tent Post area in Kanachak area of Jammu district on October one, which was foiled by BSF troops.
