Anti-Pakistan SMS campaign launched in India

The Indian government has reportedly launched a SMS campaign to discourage its people from making calls to Pakistan, reports the Daily Times.

According to reports, since Jan 21, 2010 a text message is being received on the cell phones in India to exercise extra care while calling anyone in Pakistan. Whenever a call is made to Pakistan, the caller receives a text message, “You just made a call to ISD Code 0092 (Pakistan’s international dialling code). We urge you to exercise caution while calling unknown number and sharing personal details as it can be misused”.
