Jammu: The Jammu and Kashmir border remained quiet on Sunday; one day after Pakistani gunfire left two Indian soldiers and a civilian dead and forced hundreds to flee their homes along the frontier. Although no firing or shelling was reported, frightened villagers chose to stay away in makeshift camps in Samba and Kathua districts where they have been sheltered, an official said.
