TEETWAL
A sweets exchange between the two army officers from India and Pakistan on the bridge over Kishanganga in Teetwal. The sweets were exchanged on the occasion of Eid on July 21, 2021.
The quiet diplomacy between India and Pakistan lacked a photograph. This Eid, it was clicked at the rope bridge over Kishanganga (Neelum) river at Teetwal, in the middle of which the LoC is believed to be passing. The occasion was the exchange of sweets between the rival armies (BSF followed it as well), for the second time in 2021. Accompanied by a police sub-inspector, a 4-member army team took a packet of sweets and at the middle of the culvert, two young officers, wearing white gloves, shook hands, before the packets were exchanged. Similar flag meetings were reported in Uri, Chakan Da Bagh and Mendhar in Poonch. BSF followed the trend and exchanged sweets at many places including Jammu.
