"Tharoor Disavows Government Affiliation in Response to Pahalgam Terror Incident in U.S."
In New York, Indian MP Shashi Tharoor spoke on India's response to the Pahalgam terror attack, which took 26 lives on April 22, most of whom were tourists. Tharoor, leading an all-party delegation in the United States as part of the country's diplomatic outreach following Operation Sindoor and a military conflict with Pakistan, addressed the Indian consulate.
Tharoor noted during his speech that while India has a strong response to the attack, it was also aimed at promoting unity across the divide. He stated that despite the intent to provoke religious discord, the response to the tragedy brought people together in India. Tharoor, who authored an op-ed in a leading Indian publication, urged a firm response against terrorism.
Operation Sindoor, conducted on May 7, targeted nine terror sites in Pakistan and PoK, including the Lashkar-e-Taiba in Muridke and Jaish-e-Mohammad in Bahawalpur. Tharoor highlighted that these strikes were precise and calibrated, with the objective of disrupting terrorist operations in the region, without escalating into a protracted conflict.
