Pak-India DGMO talks delayed till today's evening: Indian army

(Web Desk/Reuters): India and Pakistan have delayed until Monday evening talks between their military operations chiefs to discuss the next steps after a ceasefire, the Indian army said, as New Delhi reopened airports and shares rose in the nuclear-armed rivals.

There were no reports of explosions or projectiles overnight, with the Indian army saying Sunday was the first peaceful night in recent days along their border, although some schools remain closed.
 
Saturday's ceasefire, announced by U.S. President Donald Trump, followed four days of intense firing between the two sides and diplomacy and pressure from Washington.
 
Hindu-majority India and Muslim Pakistan both rule part of the Himalayan region of Kashmir, but claim it in full.
 
India's military sent a "hotline" message to Pakistan on Sunday about what it called its neighbour's ceasefire violations the previous day, flagging New Delhi's intent to respond to further such incidents, a top Indian army officer said.
A spokesman for Pakistan's military denied any violations.
 
The Indian army said both sides' director generals of military operations would speak by telephone in the evening, a delay from an initial timing of noon (0630 GMT), but gave no reason.

Talks between the military operations chiefs of India and Pakistan have been delayed and are now set for the evening, Reuters quotes the Indian army as saying.

The telephone conversation, which follows a ceasefire agreement between the nuclear-armed neighbours after four days of military confrontation last week, was earlier scheduled to take place at 11:30am.

In a statement on Saturday, India’s foreign ministry said both sides’ director generals of military operations would speak with each other on Monday at 12pm (11:30am PKT), says Reuters.

Pakistan did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment on the talks.
