India is launching a far-reaching diplomatic offensive to counter Pakistan’s global narrative on terrorism and highlight its role as a major sponsor of terror. The initiative kicks off with one of the seven all-party delegations, headed by JD(U) leader Sanjay Kumar Jha, set to visit Eastern nations including Japan beginning Wednesday.
“Our delegation will leave the country tomorrow. We will go to Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore,” said Sanjay Kumar Jha, JD(U)’s national working president, during a press interaction at Patna airport on Tuesday.
Jha explained that the core purpose of the delegation is to raise international awareness about Pakistan’s longstanding involvement in terrorism and to expose the country’s propaganda by presenting verified facts to the world.
The diplomatic move follows the successful execution of Operation Sindoor, under which the Modi government has laid out a comprehensive strategy to globally isolate Pakistan by revealing its terror links. As part of the campaign, seven multi-party delegations including MPs and political leaders have been formed. They will visit India-friendly nations as well as members of the UN Security Council to demonstrate how Pakistan is exporting terror not just to India but globally.
This initiative is a direct response to Pakistan’s repeated and unsuccessful efforts to project itself as a victim of terrorism and draw parallels with India.
The delegation led by Jha includes prominent political figures like BJP MP Aparajita Sarangi, Congress leader Salman Khurshid, and TMC MP Yusuf Pathan (recently replaced by Abhishek Banerjee).
Addressing the media, Sanjay Kumar Jha stated, “We are going abroad not as representatives of any particular political party, but as representatives of the country.” He noted that India stands united on the issue of terrorism and that the nation fully supports the Indian Army and the Modi government’s anti-terror stance.
He also reiterated the government’s position that any further aggression from Pakistan will be treated as an act of war — underlining a tough new normal in India’s foreign and security policy.
All seven delegations, comprising cross-party leaders and seasoned diplomats, will deliver a unified message to the international community: India has zero tolerance for terrorism, and it will continue to combat terror in all its manifestations, across all borders.
