Pakistan-India DGMOs’ talk postponed, expected later today

The scheduled meeting between the Directors General of Military Operations (DGMOs) of Pakistan and India has been delayed by a few hours and is now expected to take place later today, according to Indian media reports.

The meeting was initially scheduled for 11:30am on Monday, May 12, according to reports. The reason for the delay, however, has not been disclosed.

The DGMOS, Major General Kashif Abdullah for Pakistan and Lieutenant General Rajiv Ghai for India, are senior army officers responsible for military planning and border operations.

Their role is to typically oversee combat operations, counter-terrorism missions, and strategic planning to ensure the armed forces remain prepared for any scenario.

On Saturday, May 10, the nuclear-armed neighbours announced an agreement to cease all firing and military actions across land, air, and sea, with immediate effect.

According to India’s leading English-language outlets, the DGMOs for both countries remain in direct communication to manage and de-escalate potential flashpoints, particularly in light of the ongoing tensions following the April 22 Pahalgam attack, which killed 26 tourists, including one Nepalese national.
