India's Defence Minister, Rajnath Singh, asserted on Monday that New Delhi had concluded its military engagement with Pakistan in May after attaining all its strategic goals, dismissing U.S. President Donald Trump's assertion that he mediated the cessation.

Singh's statement, given during a parliamentary session addressing an attack on Hindu tourists in Indian Kashmir, highlighted the harrowing toll of the four-day conflict, the worst against Pakistan in nearly three decades. Despite Trump's claims, Singh maintained that the resolution was solely an agreement between New Delhi and Islamabad.

The Kashmir assault, the deadliest on civilians since the 2008 Mumbai attacks, prompted widespread controversy. India accused Pakistan of complicity, which Islamabad denied, instead suggesting an independent probe. Both nations have a long-standing dispute over Kashmir, a region central to their historical tensions.
