Indian Ambassador Jaishankar succinctly rebuts Trump's claim of experiencing a "very beautiful" ceasefire in Kashmir, while Infosys flags an "increased overtime" in an internal email. Here's the full story.
Indian Ambassador S. Jaishankar succinctly rebutted US President Donald Trump's claim that a ceasefire in Kashmir was going "very beautiful", with the latter describing it as "factually incorrect" and "emotionally misleading". This development comes after the Trump administration stated that the president's comments at the United Nations had been misconstrued.
The ceasefire, announced by the Indian government for the Muslim festival of Eid, came into effect from midnight of May 12, and during the week, Indian military formations in Jammu and Kashmir reported that Pakistani troops attacked Indian positions with small arms, automatics, and mortars in four different locations. The attacks, which came after a period of relative calm, caused casualties among the Indian troops.
Meanwhile, in other news, an internal email from Infosys flagged an "increased overtime" for delivering on contracts in the United States, triggering concerns that the Indian IT giant may have violated the federal law on overtime pay. Following the development, the company's American depositary receipts fell by 2.5%, and the stock dropped by 1.4% in after-hours trading.
