In a high-stakes exchange at the United Nations General Assembly, India firmly rejected U.S. President Donald Trump’s claim that he mediated a ceasefire between India and Pakistan. Indian diplomats emphasized that any understanding between New Delhi and Islamabad was reached bilaterally — directly between the two nations — and not through any third party. The message was clear: India sees its disputes with Pakistan as matters to be resolved by them alone, without external intervention. In the same diplomatic move, India issued a stern warning to Pakistan over terrorism emanating from its soil. India demanded that Pakistan dismantle militant training camps and hand over terrorists wanted by India, and reaffirmed its “zero tolerance” policy toward sponsoring or harbouring terrorists. Indian representatives also decried what they called Pakistan’s repeated glorification of terror groups, calling such behavior unacceptable in global forums. #IndiaPakistan #UNGA #Diplomacy #BilateralDialogue #Ceasefire #Terrorism #NationalSovereignty #ForeignPolicy #Security #IndiaStance
Ladakh is under tight security following clashes that left four people dead and many more injured. Protesters calling for greater autonomy and constitutional guarantees clashed with police in Leh and Kargil. Tear gas and even gunfire were used. The unrest is tied to frustrations over political marginalization since Ladakh was separated from Jammu & Kashmir in 2019. Locals are also worried about land rights and environmental protection. Authorities responded swiftly: curfews, bans on gatherings of more than five people, and detentions ensued. It’s a tense atmosphere. The government has scheduled talks with representatives from the region for October 6 to try and address the grievances. Many locals hope this will lead to real changes—not just promises.
