Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Monday warned Pakistan and asked it to stop the ceasefire violations immediately.
"India will not tolerate Pakistan's ceasefire violations anymore. Stop ceasefire violations now," Rajnath said.
"It should understand the reality that times have changed in India," he said.
Earlier, five civilians were killed and 35 injured in shelling from the Pakistani side of the India-Pakistan border in Jammu district on Monday.
Rajnath Singh said he had been apprised of the situation by Border Security Force (BSF) Director General D.K. Pathak.
Pathak "has been instructed ... to rush to the border areas of Jammu and Kashmir where incidents of ceasefire violations have been reported", the Home Ministry said.
Monday's major ceasefire violations by Pakistan rangers came on a day when Muslims in both India and Pakistan are celebrating the holy Eid-ul-Azha festival.
"Pakistan rangers resorted to heavy and unprovoked firing and shelling of mortars on 10 border outposts (BoPs) and civilian areas along international border (IB) in Arnia belt of Jammu district from 10 pm last night," a BSF spokesman said on Monday.
They used small, automatic weapons and mortar bombs to target the border hamlets and BoPs along the borderline.
