In a rare display of political unanimity, Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised the coordinated efforts of India’s multi-party delegations, calling their global outreach a “defining moment” in projecting India’s voice against terrorism on the international stage.
At a gathering held at his official residence, PM Modi met with delegation members who had recently returned from global diplomatic missions as part of Operation Sindoor—an initiative aimed at lobbying for a consolidated international stance against terrorism, particularly cross-border terror threats emanating from Pakistan.
The delegations, made up of MPs from the BJP, Congress, TMC, AAP, DMK, and other regional and national parties, visited over 30 countries in Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Americas. Their mission: to articulate India’s concerns, share evidence-backed dossiers, and counter disinformation campaigns regarding India’s security policies.
“The world is more receptive to India’s concerns when we present ourselves with unity and conviction,” said PM Modi. “I am proud of how every political representative, regardless of their ideological affiliations, stood firm in projecting India’s interests.”
Lawmakers who participated in the outreach shared their diplomatic engagements, recounting closed-door sessions with lawmakers, foreign policy think tanks, media houses, and government officials. Many described how global leaders acknowledged India’s consistent stand against terrorism, especially after recent attacks on Indian infrastructure and citizens.
Delegation members noted that countries responded positively to India’s appeals for greater scrutiny of terror networks and stricter international mechanisms to monitor state sponsorship of terrorism. Some even pledged to support India’s proposals in upcoming UN sessions.
Notably, Congress MP Shashi Tharoor remarked, “Despite our domestic differences, we worked in sync to advance India’s priorities. It shows what we can achieve when national interest overrides partisan divides.”
The Prime Minister underlined that India’s voice carries weight when backed by bipartisan unity. “This is the India the world wants to partner with—strong, stable, and united,” he said, concluding the meeting with a renewed call for continued political cohesion in foreign policy matters.
