Jodhpur, Phalodi residents show mixed feelings on truce

A ceasefire between India and Pakistan, announced Saturday evening, has elicited mixed reactions from residents in the border districts of Jodhpur and Phalodi. The announcement followed a four-hour lockdown earlier that day and "Operation Sindoor" by India. While some residents welcomed the ceasefire, others expressed skepticism and distrust of Pakistan, citing concerns about future conflicts and the need for decisive talks. Discussions continue regarding the implications of the ceasefire, with many maintaining a cautious outlook. The de-escalation of tensions comes amid underlying concerns about cross-border terrorism.
