Pakistan violated ceasefire, hours after reaching agreement NEW DELHI: After three nights of intense aerial warfare, India and Pakistan reached an understanding to end the fighting that President Donald Trump claimed was "mediated" by the US, but which India insisted was achieved bilaterally through director general of military operations (DGMO)-level talks initiated by the Pakistani side. The understanding quickly ran into teething problems though, with India accusing Pakistan of repeatedly violating the agreement and Indian armed forces responding adequately to such attacks hours after the understanding was announced.

Marked improvement in maternal, child health indicators: Government

Similarly, the downward trend of child mortality indicators continued, the ministry added.
