Prime Minister Narendra Modi said the West Asia conflict has created a dynamic global situation requiring continuous monitoring and adaptive strategies, during a virtual meeting with Chief Ministers and Lieutenant Governors. He emphasised maintaining economic and trade stability, ensuring energy security, strengthening supply chains, and safeguarding citizens’ interests, while calling for coordinated Centre-state action and timely information sharing. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump announced a 10-day pause on strikes against Iranian energy facilities until April 6, citing ongoing talks. He said negotiations were progressing “very well,” though uncertain. Iran denied seeking talks, even as indirect contacts continue amid ongoing US-Israeli strikes and reported Iranian retaliatory actions across the region. (PC: X)
