Defence Minister A K Antony said there were "enough troops" in Jammu and Kashmir and the government was taking all steps to protect the interest of the country.
The Director Generals of Military Operations (DGMOs) of the two countries were in touch, he said, adding "let us see the result of that talk".
Antony said such kind of occasional ceasefire violations and firing was a matter of serious concern.
"It is not an isolated incident, it's increasing from the last one year. Ceasefire violations are also increasing. It is a matter of concern to us and the tragic, provocative actions two days back, that was a turning point at the moment," the Defence Minister said.
"This kind of occasional ceasefire violations and firing is a serious concern, because even though violence level in Kashmir has come down compared to the past, infiltration attempts are increasing," he said.
The minister said, "We are closely monitoring the whole development and our entire border and Indian troops were on alert.
"At the same time, we have directed the DGMO to be in touch with his counterpart. Let's see the result of that talk. The government, in a coordinated manner, is closely monitoring the situation and we will take every step to protect our interest and prestige of our armed forces," Antony said. (MORE)
