In a striking statement, PDP leader and former Jammu & Kashmir Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti has thanked Donald Trump for mediating the India-Pakistan ceasefire, calling it a crucial step—but one that came too late. “So many people died... this should have happened earlier,” she said, reflecting the sorrow and frustration of civilians caught in the crossfire.
