In the wake of Operation Sindoor, the Indian government has organized an all-party delegation to brief various countries on India's stance. This initiative aims to rally global support against terrorism emanating from Pakistan and to isolate Islamabad internationally. The delegation consists of seven multi-party groups, each tasked with engaging with different countries. These delegations are scheduled to depart on May 21-22, 2025, to key partner countries, including member countries of the UN Security Council.
The composition of the delegations reflects a broad political consensus, with representation from various parties including the ruling Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP), the Indian National Congress, and several regional parties. This unified front aims to project India's resolute approach to combating terrorism. Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju emphasized that these delegations will carry India's unified message of zero tolerance towards terrorism, showcasing national unity transcending political differences.
Here's a breakdown of the delegation leadership and their likely destinations:
The delegations consist of Members of Parliament (MPs) from various political parties, prominent political figures, and experienced diplomats. Senior diplomats, including former foreign secretary HV Shringla and former envoys, will assist the MPs during their presentations. Each delegation is expected to have six to seven MPs.
These all-party delegations will convey India's firm message of zero tolerance against terrorism to the world. They will also emphasize that Pakistan has been made to pay a heavy price for terrorist attacks on India. Furthermore, the initiative seeks to counter Pakistan's propaganda on the global stage, particularly its misrepresentation of the situation in Jammu and Kashmir.
