All-Party Delegations Head to Global Capitals to Highlight Impact of Pakistani Cross-Border Terrorism

In a significant diplomatic push, India has dispatched high-level all-party delegations to key global capitals with the primary objective of raising awareness about the persistent and destructive impact of Pakistani cross-border terrorism. This initiative, coordinated by the Ministry of External Affairs, marks a rare show of unity among political parties as they strive to present a collective voice on a matter of national security and international concern.

The delegations, comprising members from the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Indian National Congress, and regional parties such as the Trinamool Congress, DMK, and others, are scheduled to visit countries including the United States, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Japan, and Australia. Each team will meet with lawmakers, foreign ministry officials, think tanks, and media outlets to present evidence and firsthand accounts of terror activities originating from Pakistani soil.

Sources from the External Affairs Ministry have confirmed that dossiers containing detailed intelligence reports, victim testimonies, and evidence of Pakistan-based terrorist groups’ involvement in attacks such as the 26/11 Mumbai attacks, the Pulwama bombing, and regular ceasefire violations along the Line of Control will be presented. The aim is to build a strong international consensus on the need to hold Pakistan accountable and to strengthen global counter-terrorism frameworks.

Speaking to the press before departing for Washington D.C., senior Congress leader and Rajya Sabha MP Anand Sharma stated, “This is not about politics, this is about India’s security and the safety of its citizens. Terrorism is a global issue, and it is time the world acts in unison against those who sponsor and harbor terrorists.”

Union Minister of State for External Affairs Meenakshi Lekhi, leading another delegation to London, echoed similar sentiments. “The global community must no longer ignore the well-documented role of Pakistan in fostering terror networks. We are reaching out to our allies with facts, and we believe the truth will resonate,” she said.

The initiative has been welcomed by various strategic and diplomatic analysts who view it as a timely response to increasing international concerns over terrorism and regional stability in South Asia. Dr. Harinder Singh, a Delhi-based security expert, remarked, “This campaign can help shift global opinion, especially at a time when Pakistan faces economic and political crises. If the delegations succeed in convincing major powers, it could lead to increased diplomatic pressure on Islamabad.”

However, Pakistan has swiftly responded, terming the move “propaganda.” In a statement, its Foreign Office claimed that India was attempting to divert attention from alleged human rights violations in Kashmir and reiterated that it is a “victim of terrorism” itself.

Despite the denials, India remains firm in its stand. The delegations’ efforts are also expected to lay the groundwork for more robust cooperation at upcoming international platforms, including the G20, the United Nations General Assembly, and various bilateral dialogues.

As the delegations begin their tours, the nation watches closely, hoping that this rare political unity will amplify India's voice against terrorism on the world stage.
