Kashmiri earthquake survivors (foreground) approach the Line of Control (LoC) in an attempt to cross to India, in Titrinote, Pakistan-administered Kashmir, about 180km (112 miles) east of Islamabad November 7, 2005. Pakistan and India on Monday open one checkpoint of the Loc between Pakistan-administered Kashmir's Titrinote and Indian-administered Kashmiri's Poonch. The Pakistani proposal to open five points on the old rivals' disputed border in Kashmir appears more of a symbolic gesture of friendship, rather than something that will make a big difference for efforts to bring relief to survivors.
