Iran confirms US peace deal, says negotiations to be held during 60-day period
Tehran , June 15 : Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister for Legal and International Affairs Kazem Gharibabadi has confirmed a peace deal with the United States, and said that Tehran will enter a proposed 60-day negotiation period for a final agreement only after verifying Washington's commitments towards ending hostilities, lifting the blockade and releasing Iranian assets. US President Donald Trump has announced the completion of a peace deal between Washington and Tehran, along with the lifting of US Naval blockade on the Strait of Hormuz. According to Iran's state-affiliated Press TV, Gharibabadi said the official signing ceremony of the agreement will take place on Friday, after which the text of the Memorandum of Understanding will be made public. The enemy that had launched an attack to carry out its sinister objectives suffered defeat in all its goals, and the Islamic Republic of Iran achieved great victories in the war. The memorandum of understanding was not just a product of diplomacy, but is indebted to Iran's military achievements. It is indebted to the pure blood of the martyrs we gave in confronting the enemies of the establishment. After the official signing, the text of the memorandum of understanding will be published. On Friday, we will have an official signing, and the heads of the two delegations will hold discussions to determine the future arrangements for negotiations, Gharibabadi said. He added that Iran would first verify whether the United States had fulfilled its obligations regarding ending the war, lifting the blockade, and releasing assets before entering the next phase of negotiations. Entering into 60 days of negotiations is conditional upon the fulfilment of these commitments by the United States, Gharibabadi said, according to Press TV. Providing further details of the emerging agreement, Gharibabadi said Iran had incorporated all of its key positions into the draft memorandum of understanding and stressed that the document should not be interpreted as a sign of trust in Washington. This memorandum of understanding does not mean trusting the enemy, he said in remarks reported by Al Jazeera. We will monitor the implementation of US commitments. The remarks came after US President Donald Trump announced the completion of a peace deal between Washington and Tehran. In a post on Truth Social, Trump wrote, The Deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran is now complete. Congratulations to all! I hereby fully authorise the toll-free opening of the Strait of Hormuz, and, simultaneously herewith, authorise the immediate removal of the United States Naval blockade. Ships of the World, start your engines. Let the oil flow! Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif also announced that an agreement had been reached following intensive negotiations. In a post on X, Sharif said both sides had agreed to the immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon. Sharif stated that the official signing ceremony would take place on June 19 in Switzerland and thanked Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Turkiye for their roles in facilitating the mediation process. According to Sharif, a series of pre-implementation meetings will be held before the signing ceremony to lay the groundwork for technical discussions and the implementation of the agreement. (ANI)

Bridging the Digital Divide in Livestock Care: Challenges and Realities for Farmers
For millions of smallholder families across rural India, livestock is a lifeline. Cattle, goats, sheep, and poultry provide daily nutrition and a safety net during hard times. In the high-altitude terrains of Jammu and Kashmir, an animal is often more valuable than a bank account. Despite the grave impact of infectious and non-infectious diseases, access to timely veterinary services remains severely limited where physical infrastructure is sparse and professionals are few. Farmers often grapple with geographical barriers, prohibitive travel costs, and a lack of awareness about solutions that could bridge this care gap. Digital technology promises to help them detect, report, and manage livestock diseases more effectively. Data management is a crucial yet overlooked aspect of farming. Maintaining health records, tracking reproductive cycles, and monitoring productivity are essential for profitability, yet most smallholders rely on memory or paper registers that are easily lost. Over the past decade, mobile phones have become a viable medium for disseminating agricultural information, even in remote areas. Apps and SMS platforms designed for the livestock sector can connect farmers to weather alerts, remote veterinary advice, real-time outbreak reporting, and systematic record-keeping. However, a marked gap exists between the use of digital tools in veterinary units and their actual accessibility by livestock owners. Even veterinarians and para-vets struggle to deploy these solutions effectively. Numerous applications promise seamless access and streamlined work, but widespread lack of digital and media literacy, coupled with persistent technical errors, means these tools seldom perform as expected. Instead of solving problems, they often add frustration. The Government of India has launched several dedicated mobile apps. Kisan Suvidha delivers weather forecasts, agro-dealer information, and market prices. Bharat Pashudhan connects farmers, field workers, and breeding centers for real-time tracking of reproductive data, artificial insemination, and vaccination status. The IVRI-Vaccination Guide App educates veterinarians, paravets, and owners on vaccination schedules for major diseases. The KVK Mobile App allows farmers to send queries directly to Krishi Vigyan Kendra experts. On paper, this digital arsenal is impressive. Yet the reality in high-altitude districts of Jammu and Kashmir remains sobering. Key barriers include high mobile data costs, limited internet access, inconsistent network coverage across mountainous terrain, low digital literacy, and profound unawareness that these apps exist. Because low digital literacy is the most persistent barrier, targeted hands-on training programs are urgently needed. Such efforts should strengthen local cooperative societies, which can serve as natural platforms for collective training, resource sharing, and app adoption. Awareness campaigns through extension agents, cooperative meetings, and community organisations must show farmers not only the benefits but also how to use apps step by step. Applications must be designed for hilly regions, incorporating local languages such as Dogri, Kashmiri, Gojri, and Pahari, along with cultural nuances. Offline functionality and compatibility with basic smartphonesnot just high-end deviceswill dramatically enhance usability. Continuous training for veterinary staff and field teams is essential so they can guide animal owners. Media and technical literacy camps at the panchayat or block level should reach the larger population. Special attention must go to underprivileged and remote communities, which face the harshest consequences of digital exclusion. Promising websites and apps need updated versions with high loading capacity that function reliably even on low network bandwidth. User interfaces must be available in local languages to serve the illiterate and semi-literate population that forms the backbone of our livestock economy. When implemented correctly, these facilities will save precious time and reduce economic losses. Such accessible, empathetic service will benefit public health, animal welfare, the environment, and the sustainability of mountain agriculture. Mobile applications have an undeniable potential to revolutionise livestock farming by enhancing data management, expanding knowledge, and enabling informed decision-making. However, a genuine collaborative effort involving farmers, app developers, extension services, and policymakers is necessary to overcome existing challenges. Only through concerted action can we transform digital promise into practical reality for the farmer tending his flock in the remote heights of Jammu and Kashmir.
