eznews.inIn New Delhi, Congress leader Shashi Tharoor highlighted the differences between the circumstances of the 1971 Bangladesh liberation war and the current situation following a ceasefire agreement with Pakistan. Speaking to ANI, Tharoor emphasized the need for peace, stating, "We had reached a stage where the escalation was needlessly getting out of control." He acknowledged the suffering of the Indian people, particularly referencing the Pahalgam terror attack that claimed 26 lives, and affirmed the government's responsibility to pursue those responsible. While praising Indira Gandhi's leadership in 1971 as a significant achievement, he noted that today's geopolitical context is vastly different, arguing that the current conflict lacks a clear objective. Tharoor called for a focus on national prosperity and development rather than prolonged conflict. Meanwhile, Congress leaders utilized social media to invoke Gandhi's legacy, prompting a response from the BJP questioning past UPA actions regarding terrorism.

Published: May 11 2025, 9 ameznews.inAfter four days of intense military conflict marked by missile strikes, drone incursions, and artillery exchanges along the Line of Control (LoC), India and Pakistan agreed to a ceasefire effective May 10. Despite this agreement, India reported violations, claiming to intercept Pakistani drones in Jammu and Kashmir and Gujarat. The escalation began with Indian Air Force strikes targeting key Pakistani Air Force bases, raising alarms over potential threats to Pakistan's nuclear command. In response, Pakistan sought urgent intervention from the United States, which urged de-escalation and communication between the two nations. As tensions escalated, Pakistan's Director General of Military Operations contacted his Indian counterpart to negotiate, though India maintained its stance against formal negotiations outside established protocols. The ceasefire does not affect India's previous decisions post the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, including the suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty.
Published: May 11 2025, 8 ameznews.inIndia and Pakistan announced a ceasefire effective Saturday at 5 PM, following four days of intense military exchanges. However, shortly after the agreement, India reported violations by Pakistan. Congress MP Shashi Tharoor criticized Pakistan's actions in a poetic post on X, highlighting distrust in their commitments. Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri confirmed the ceasefire violations, stating that the Indian armed forces were responding appropriately and maintaining vigilance along the border. He urged Pakistan to address these violations responsibly. The ceasefire was established after a call between the Directors General of Military Operations from both countries, aimed at halting all military actions. This escalation in tensions followed a deadly terror attack in Pahalgam last month, which prompted India to launch "Operation Sindoor," targeting terror infrastructure linked to the attack.
Published: May 11 2025, 8 ameznews.inThe Indian government has declared that any future acts of terrorism attributed to Pakistan will be treated as acts of war, a response to escalating tensions marked by drone attacks and cross-border shelling from Islamabad. This declaration follows India's anti-terror operations in the wake of the Pahalgam attack, which have been met with attempted strikes on both military and civilian infrastructure by Pakistan. Indian air defence systems successfully neutralised these threats. According to Indian law, acts of terror encompass a range of violent activities intended to undermine national security and public order, including bombings, cyberattacks, and attacks on critical infrastructure. While non-state actors typically perpetrate such acts, state-sponsored terrorism, particularly from Pakistan, remains a significant concern, given its history of funding and training terrorist groups targeting India. The decision to classify acts of terror falls under the jurisdiction of law enforcement officials, as stipulated by the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, 1967.
