India-Pak Ceasefire: Pakistan pleaded for understanding after suffering 'catastrophic losses,' says BJP
India News | India and Pakistan have agreed to cease all military actions across land, air, and sea starting from the evening of May 10.
A day after India and Pakistan agreed to halt all military actions on land, air, and sea, with effect from the evening of May 10, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) said Pakistan pleaded for an understanding after suffering “catastrophic losses”.
In a post on the social media platform X on Sunday (May 11), BJP national spokesperson Pradeep Bhandari said India called out Pakistan's "nuclear bluff" with strategic resolve.
“Make No Mistake — Pakistan Pleaded for Understanding After Suffering Catastrophic Losses,” Bhandari said.
“In just 72 hours, under the decisive leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India has rewritten the rules of engagement with Pakistan," he added.
"Sent a clear message: no inch of Pakistani territory is beyond India's reach, crippled Pakistan economically by pausing the Indus Water Treaty," the BJP leader added.

A timeline of the agreement
On May 10, Indian Air Force aircraft launched BrahMos-A cruise missiles targeting Pakistan's Air Force bases, as per NDTV, citing government sources. The first impacts of India's missiles were confirmed at Chaklala near Rawalpindi and Sargodha in Punjab province.
Later on, Indian intelligence agencies came to know that Pakistan's defence networks were circulating messages that India might next target Pakistan's nuclear command and control infrastructure. After this, Pakistan heightened the security protocols at the sites.
At this point, Pakistani approached the US. Although, the Trump administration had urged both perties for de-escalation, it refused to directly get involved in the matter. Trump's VP JD Vance had also said a few days back that the India-Pakistan tensions was "none of our business".
But on May 10, India's Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri said that Major General Kashif Abdullah, Pakistan's DGMO, placed a direct call to his Indian counterpart, Lieutenant General Rajiv Ghai around 3:30 PM (IST).
But India continued on its stance not to be engaged in any formal diplomatic or military negotiation with Pakistan outside of protocol. India also said that Pakistan's any further action against the country will be considered an act of war.
By the evening of May 10, India's Ministry of External Affairs announced in a press briefing that India and Pakistan reached an agreement and would drop the arms. Misri said that further updates would be announced on May 12.
