Jammu and Kashmir National Conference leader, Tanvir Sadiq has welcomed the all-party delegation which is set to go to various prominent capitals around the world to project India's resolute approach against Pakistan-sponsored terrorism, and said that the whole world should be told about the Kashmir issue.
"This is a Parliamentary group constituted by the Government of India; they have decided the members. It is a good initiative; our perspective should be conveyed to the world. The whole world should be told about Kashmir's situation," Sadiq told ANI in Srinagar. Meanwhile, in Delhi, while Congress leader Sandeep Dixit welcomed the initiative by the government, he also mentioned that India should insist that other countries also speak to Pakistan to make the country stop its terror activities. "Delegations have also gone in the past. They will present India's side, but we should know the points. We should insist that other countries speak to Pakistan to stop its terror activities. They (Pakistan) should end it (terrorism) if they want peace and continue with the ceasefire... Most countries of the world stood with India after the Pahalgam attack and criticised terrorism," Dixit told ANI on Sunday. Congress leader Shashi Tharoor, BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad, JDU leader Sanjay Kumar Jha, BJP leader Baijayant Panda, DMK leader Kanimozhi Karunanidhi, NCP (SP) leader Supriya Sule, and Shiv Sena leader Shrikant Eknath Shinde will be leading the seven delegations which will go across the world. The All-Party Delegations will project India's national consensus and resolute approach to combating terrorism in all forms and manifestations. They would carry forth the country's strong message of zero tolerance against terrorism to the world. Members of Parliament from different parties, prominent political personalities, and distinguished diplomats will be part of each delegation. The tour is expected to last 10 days and is likely to commence on May 23. Following the Pahalgam terror attack in which 26 people were killed, India launched Operation Sindoor on May 7, in which precision strikes destroyed terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu Kashmir (PoK), eliminating nearly 100 terrorists.
