Hours after a US-brokered ceasefire was announced, Pakistan violated the agreement by launching missile and drone attacks across the Line of Control and International Border in Jammu and Kashmir. This escalation followed India's Operation Sindoor, a counter-offensive in response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 civilians. Despite the ceasefire, tensions remain high, with India on high alert and Prime Minister Modi holding security meetings with top officials. Pakistan has called for communication on the ceasefire and urged troops to exercise restraint, while denying any violations. The situation along the LoC is currently stable, but western border states remain vigilant. Questioning the timeline of developments in regard to the India-Pakistan ceasefire agreement on Saturday evening, Congress leader P Chidambaram wrote on X that the Director General of Military Operations (DGMO), Pakistan called DGMO, India at 3.35 pm and proposed a cease-fire, and India agreed. "India's Foreign Secretary made no reference to President Trump or Secretary Marco Rubio or a forthcoming meeting or a neutral site. That is intriguing too," Chidambaram added. (PC: The Hindu)
