Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday accused Pakistan of continuing proxy war of terrorism against India, saying it has lost the strength to fight a conventional war.

"The neighbouring country has lost the strength to fight a conventional war, but continues to engage in the proxy war of terrorism," he said while addressing troops of Army and the Indian Air Force on his maiden trip to Leh and Ladakh.

This is the first sharp attack on Pakistan by Modi after assuming office over two months back and comes in the midst of his peace initiatives. Modi had invited Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and other SAARC leaders for his swearing in on May 26.

His remarks came close on the heels of India's mounting concerns over repeated ceasefire violations by Pakistan and increasing number of militant attacks in Kashmir, the latest carried out on Monday night on a BSF convoy at Pampore in South Kashmir's Pulwama district, leaving eight personnel including an officer injured.
