A day earlier, while addressing the Indian community in Seoul, Jha highlighted India's firm stance against terrorism and reiterated the country's new normal against terrorism - "If you hit us, we will hit you back."

Jha also hailed Operation Sindoor, under which terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK) was hit with precision.

Jha-led delegation on Sunday also held a meeting with the Ambassador of India to South Korea, Amit Kumar, at the Indian Embassy in Seoul.

The delegation also includes Trinamool Congress MP Abhishek Banerjee, CPI(M) MP John Brittas, BJP MP Aparajita Sarangi, BJP MP Brij Lal, BJP MP Pradan Baruah, Ambassador Mohan Kumar, and BJP MP Hemang Joshi. The visit marks a continuation of Operation Sindoor, India's diplomatic outreach following the recent terror attacks in Pahalgam.

Operation Sindoor was launched on May 7 as a decisive military response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack by Pak-sponsored terrorists in which 26 people were killed. Indian Armed Forces targeted terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, leading to the death of over 100 terrorists affiliated with terror outfits like the Jaish-e-Mohammed, Lashkar-e-Taiba and Hizbul Mujahideen.
