Tensions remain high in India's border districts following thwarted attacks from Pakistan. The night was filled with anxiety and blackouts as explosions were heard across the region. Nevertheless, the Indian military's swift response averted any major incidents, bringing a sense of relief by morning.

Authorities in Punjab and Rajasthan have implemented strict measures to ensure public safety. Blackouts were enforced in towns like Amritsar, Pathankot, and Jaisalmer, and public events have been banned. Residents are urged to stay vigilant, with advisory warnings to remain indoors during heightened alert.

Tensions escalated after India retaliated for the Pahalgam terror attack with precise missile strikes in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. Although fears persist, the Indian forces' proactive measures have managed to contain the situation and instill confidence among locals.
