Amid the ongoing tensions between India and Pakistan, prominent members of the Indian Parliament take on the world to dismantle the propaganda and lies spread by Islamabad about
Operation Sindoor
. The mission conducted by the Indian forces was in response to the
Pahalgam terror attack
that led to the death of 26 tourists in Kashmir, sending shockwaves across India.

During their respective addresses in different countries, the Indian MPs echoed the same sentiment: that New Delhi will not tolerate terrorism. The MPs are members of the all-party delegation formed by the government to spread India’s message worldwide.

On Saturday, a delegation led by
Congress MP Shashi Tharoor
paid their respect at the 9/11 memorial after arriving in the United States. Tharoor was flanked by MP Ganti Harish Madhur, MP Shashank Mani Tripathi, MP Bhubaneswar Kalita, MP Milind Deora and former Ambassador Taranjit Singh Sandhu. The delegation was also accompanied by India’s Ambassador to the US, Vinay Mohan Kwatra.

The memorial is a tribute of remembrance, honouring the 2,977 people killed in the terror attacks of September 11, 2001, at the World Trade Centre site, near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, and at the Pentagon, as well as the six people killed in the World Trade Centre bombing on February 26, 1993.

‘We came as a reminder that terrorism is a shared problem’: Tharoor

After paying his respects at the memorial, Tharoor told the media the purpose of the Indian delegation’s visit to the United States. “It was obviously a very moving moment for us, but it was also meant to send a very strong message that we are here in a city which is bearing still the scars of that savage terrorist attack in the wake of yet another terrorist attack in our own country,” the Congress MP averred.

“We came both as a reminder that this is a shared problem, but also out of a spirit of solidarity with the victims, who included Indians…it is a global problem…we must fight it unitedly,” he added. While interacting with prominent personalities, BJP MP Nishikant Dubey echoed Tharoor’s sentiment and condemned the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) funding of Pakistan.

“Since the last 2-3 days, the IMF is insisting that Pakistan not divert money for anything else and use it for the cause only. We feel the IMF will do something else. It is our presumption. Our request to you is that we are here because we are facing a great problem with Pakistan…we need your support,” said Dubey.

While representing India in Bahrain, BJP leader
Baijayant panda
said that India will no longer be blackmailed by ‘Pakistan’s nuclear bluff”. “Our new doctrine is, we have called their (Pakistan) nuclear bluff, we will no longer be blackmailed by their nuclear bluff….we can and will retaliate, things will never go anywhere close to being nuclear because our intention is not hostility, our intention is to extract the cost to deter them,” Panda said during an interaction session in Bahrain.

During the Same Interactive Session, All Indian Majlis-E-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM)
Asaduddin Owaisi
emphasised that the terror organisations operating in Pakistan used religion to justify the killings, adding that Islam condemns terrorism. “These terrorist organisations have justified killings of innocent people in India, and they have out of context quoted Quranic verses…we have to put an end to it. They have used religion to justify the killing of people. Islam condemns terrorism and the Quran has categorically stated that the killing of one innocent person is like the killing of the whole of humankind,” Owaisi averred.
