"Pakistan Army initiated unprovoked firing of small arms, automatics and mortar bombs from today morning in Bhimbher Gali (BG) sector along LoC (in Poonch district)," a defence spokesman said.
The Indian Army is retaliating strongly and effectively to the ceasefire violation, he added.
Two BSF jawans sustained minor injuries, a BSF officer said.
Ceasefire violations along the LoC and international border in Jammu and Kashmir have left 21 persons including 12 security personnel dead and over 80 others, mostly civilians, injured this year.
While there were no ceasefire violations by Pakistan reported along the IB since January 22, intermittent shelling has taken place along the LoC.
