An all-party delegation led by NCP MP Supriya Sule has reached Egypt to present India's stance on zero tolerance against terrorism, reported news agency PTI.
The delegation arrived in Cairo after concluding their visit to Ethiopia on Sunday,
Suresh Reddy, India's Ambassador to Egypt, received the delegation.
The delegation has a packed and productive schedule in Egypt, including Ministerial engagements, Parliamentary exchanges, interactions with think tanks, media, the Indian community and others, reported PTI.
It is one of the seven multi-party delegations India has tasked to visit 33 global capitals to reach out to the international community to emphasise Pakistan's links to terrorism.
Tensions between India and Pakistan escalated after the Pahalgam terror attack, with India carrying out precision strikes on terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir in the early hours of May 7.
Pakistan attempted to attack Indian military bases on May 8, 9, and 10. The Indian side responded strongly to the Pakistani actions.
The on-ground hostilities ended with an understanding of stopping the military actions following talks between the directors general of military operations of both sides on May 10.
Speaking about the ongoing tour, Supriya Sule said that the delegation's visits to Qatar, South Africa, and Ethiopia had been "very successful," and expressed optimism about further strengthening India's bilateral ties through the Egypt leg of the journey.
She added that all three countries have been very supportive of India's message from the Prime Minister's Operation Sindoor to reach the next level of "zero tolerance against terrorism."
She also expressed gratitude towards the Ministry of External Affairs, which has organised these important meetings and made the visit successful.
Speaking to ANI, Supriya Sule said, "We first went to Qatar. From Qatar, we went to South Africa. From South Africa, we have come to Ethiopia. It has been an outstandingly successful trip. All three countries have been very supportive, and the message that we have brought from India, the Prime Minister's Operation Sindoor, to take it to the next level of 'zero tolerance against terror'. All three countries have reassured us that they will stand with India firmly, and they will not tolerate or support any country that supports or encourages or trains terrorists. They are very clear and I'm very grateful to the Ministry of External Affairs, which has organised these important meetings...I think this whole idea of making this outreach program so far in the three countries that we have come to has been hugely successful, and the entire credit goes to the Ministry of External Affairs, which has worked overtime to make it successful."
