New Delhi: Significant frustration is visible in India following Pakistan’s successful mediation between the United States and Iran, which not only resulted in a ceasefire but also led to direct peace talks in Islamabad.
Indian media, which has long projected India’s strategic dominance in the region, is now strongly criticizing the country’s foreign policy.
Many outlets are raising serious questions about India’s growing isolation and irrelevance at a time when a major global conflict has unfolded.

An Indian journalist was seen expressing deep disappointment over Pakistan’s pivotal role and openly criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi and External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar.
She pointed out that despite their tall claims of isolating Pakistan globally, it is India’s international standing that has suffered under Modi’s leadership.
Notably, several prominent Indians have acknowledged Pakistan’s important contribution to global peace and praised the efforts of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir in de-escalating the US-Iran conflict.
