On May 10, 2025, a critical conversation between India's and Pakistan's Director Generals of Military Operations culminated in a ceasefire agreement. This pivotal decision was reached through direct communication between the two nations, explicitly excluding any third-party intervention.

Amidst Parliament queries, Minister Kirti Vardhan Singh confirmed that no further bilateral agreements were signed post-ceasefire, reinforcing the focused and measured approach by India. This communication was deemed purely bilateral, initiated by the Pakistani side, to mitigate military tension.

Furthermore, Pakistan's recent roles as Chair of the UNSC Taliban Sanctions Committee and Vice-Chair of the Counter-Terrorism Committee, above all, highlight its non-permanent member status. Meanwhile, India continues diplomatic efforts to counter Pakistan-sponsored terrorism, with seven delegations spreading awareness globally post-Pahalgam attack.
