Congress has raised concerns about the United States' role in the India-Pakistan ceasefire, questioning Prime Minister Modi's silence on the matter. Jairam Ramesh emphasized the party's support for the armed forces in combating terrorism and criticized Modi's absence from all-party meetings.

Congress leader Jairam Ramesh questions whether Donald Trump coerced India into a ceasefire with Pakistan, citing Trump's claims of brokering the agreement. India firmly rebuts US claims, maintaining that any ceasefire discussions originated from Pakistan's DGMO.

A series of military strikes last week by India and Pakistan brought the nuclear-armed rivals closer to a broader war.

Pakistan's government press office told NBC News that it had targeted and destroyed a missile storage site, an air base, and an airfield inside India near the border. It also said it had launched a cyber operation, claiming to have hacked several Indian government websites.
