Amid the India-Pakistan tensions, Union Minister of State for Defence Sanjay Seth said on Monday, "After the success of Operation Sindoor, the entire world has shown strong support for India's fight against terrorism."
Appreciating India's move of forming seven-member delegations that would go across the globe to spread India's message against terrorism, MoS Sanjay Seth also lashed out at Pakistan for their unwavering support for terrorism.
Speaking on the global response to the recent Pahalgam terror attack and the tensions that have been going on between the two nations, Seth said, "The world is seeing this terrorism. The world condemned the killing of 26 people in the Pahalgam terror attack. Pakistan keeps threatening its nuclear capabilities. It is a country that harbours terrorism."
Furthermore, he added, "Our MPs are going around the world and telling people about it. The common people of other nations are also suffering from terrorism and are standing with India. The world is standing with PM Modi's resolution of zero tolerance against terrorism."
Minister of State Sanjay Seth's words for worldwide support for India's fight against terrorism echo the efforts of other Indian leaders. He also praised Congress MP Shashi Tharoor and Bengaluru South MP Tejasvi Surya for being a part of the delegation which is currently touring different countries, including the United States of America.
The Indian All-Party Parliamentary Delegation met with Guyana's Vice President, Bharrat Jagdeo, to reiterate India's zero-tolerance policy on Pakistan-sponsored terrorism.
Vice President Bharrat Jagdeo, a respected statesman who served 12 years as President of Guyana, strongly condemned the recent Pahalgam terror attack and expressed firm support for India's Operation Sindoor when the Indian delegation was on their visit to Guyana.
Reflecting this shared commitment, Bengaluru South MP Tejasvi Surya stated, "Our delegation met with Vice President of Guyana, H.E. Bharrat Jagdeo, and spoke to him on a wide range of issues, including India's fight against terrorism." This reinforces the growing international solidarity with India's zero-tolerance stance against Pakistan-sponsored terrorism.
In an earlier speech, BJP MP from Bengaluru Tejsvi Surya discussed Prime Minister Narendra Modi's zero-tolerance policy for terrorism while addressing students at Texila American University.
Emphasising India's long-standing battle against cross-border terrorism sponsored by Pakistan, Tejasvi Surya stated, "The world must unite in calling out state-sponsored terrorism and uphold peace. India, through decisive actions like Operation Sindoor, is at the forefront of this global effort."
This message was delivered by the Indian All-Party Parliamentary Delegation, part of the Group of 5 led by Shashi Tharoor. The group includes MPs from across party lines--Shambhavi (LJP - Ram Vilas), Dr Sarfaraz Ahmad (JMM), G.M. Harish Balayogi (TDP), Shashank Mani Tripathi (BJP), Bhubaneswar Kalita (BJP), Milind Deora (Shiv Sena - Shinde faction), and Tejasvi Surya (BJP) - and Ambassador Taranjit Singh Sandhu.
The All-Party Delegation standing together shows that India's diplomatic effort against Pakistan-sponsored terrorism is cohesive.
The Indian government is launching this campaign as part of a larger international effort to counteract Pakistan-sponsored terrorism and to promote India's firm movement against terrorism.
