In a landmark diplomatic move, India and China have reached an agreement over patrol duties along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in eastern Ladakh, marking an end to a four-year-long military standoff. The breakthrough was announced in New Delhi on Monday, indicating potential discussions between Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping during the upcoming BRICS summit in Russia.

In other news, climate activist Sonam Wangchuk concluded his fast following assurances from the Indian Home Ministry regarding resumed discussions on Ladakh's demands. Meanwhile, security forces conducted a massive operation in Jammu and Kashmir's Ganderbal after a recent terror attack at a construction site claimed seven lives.

Additionally, the Indian government is proposing legislative measures to tackle bomb threats to airlines, including the introduction of no-fly lists for perpetrators. These events occur as Prime Minister Modi emphasizes India's focus on reliable international relationships, while the nation continues to play a pivotal role in BRICS-related global governance reforms.
