"Shashi Tharoor advocates for unity and joint resilience, stressing that this is no moment for disregard or apathy"
New York City, USA - May 25 (ANI): Indian all-party delegation, headed by Congress MP Shashi Tharoor, conveyed a firm message of determination against terrorism to the global community during a visit to the 9/11 Memorial. Tharoor, speaking to the media, stressed the need for mutual solidarity and collective strength against the menace of terrorism.
Tharoor underscored the similarity between the experience of terror attacks suffered by India and the US. "We, too, have endured the wounds of terrorism, as evident here in this moving memorial," he said, referring to the scars left by the devastating attack.
The delegation, comprising representatives from multiple political parties including the Lok Janshakti Party, Jharkhand Mukti Morcha, Telugu Desam Party, BJP, Shiv Sena, and former Indian Ambassador to the US, Taranjit Singh Sandhu, aims to explain the importance of collective action against terrorism during their visits to countries such as Guyana, Panama, Brazil, and Colombia.
Tharoor expressed confidence in the Indian diaspora's ability to shape and influence public opinion, urging them to amplify the message of zero tolerance towards terrorism. He emphasized that the diaspora serves as a force multiplier for India's mission.
The Indian delegation's visit comes after the country's measured but forceful response, Operation Sindoor, to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack. The delegation's mission is to project India's national consensus on combating terrorism and rally global support for its stance against terrorism in all its forms. (ANI)
