Video: Ravi Shankar Prasad led Delegation at Paris Press Conference Reaffirms India’s Anti-Terror Stance
Paris, France – In a concerted global diplomatic offensive under "Operation Sindoor," a high-level all-party parliamentary delegation led by senior BJP MP Ravi Shankar Prasad arrived in Paris, France, to reaffirm India's unwavering stance against terrorism. This visit marks the crucial first leg of a six-nation European tour, aimed at sensitizing international stakeholders about India's zero-tolerance policy following the brutal Pahalgam ter*or attack.
The nine-member delegation, a powerful reflection of India's unified political will, comprises a diverse group of parliamentarians including Daggubati Purandeswari (BJP), Priyanka Chaturvedi (Shiv Sena UBT), Ghulam Ali Khatana (BJP), Amar Singh (Congress), Samik Bhattacharya (BJP), M. Thambidurai (AIADMK), former Union Minister M.J. Akbar, and former Ambassador Pankaj Saran. Their presence underscores a bipartisan consensus on national security matters.
During their engagements in the French capital, the delegation held extensive discussions with prominent French think-tanks, leading journalists, and interacted with the vibrant Indian diaspora. Ravi Shankar Prasad emphasized that "Operation Sindoor," India's precision military response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, is "only paused" and not concluded. He stressed that while India has never been the aggressor in conflicts, it will decisively defend its sovereignty and impose a heavy cost on those who perpetuate cross-border terrorism.
The core messages conveyed by the delegation were clear and unequivocal:

The core messages conveyed by the delegation were clear and unequivocal:
- India's absolute zero-tolerance policy towards terrorism and its state sponsors.
- The imperative for the global community to speak with one united voice against terrorism, without differentiating between terrorists and those who support them.
- A stark warning that acts of terrorism, particularly those with cross-border origins, will be met with resolute and united resistance.
- Highlighting how Pakistan's military establishment continues to bless and support terrorist groups, making terrorism an "economic industry" for that nation.
Prasad exhorted members of the Indian diaspora to act as "Brand Ambassadors" for India, showcasing its commitment to peace while simultaneously making it clear that the killing of innocent Indians by terrorists will demand a significant price.
The delegation's visit to Paris sets the tone for their broader European outreach, which will include Italy, the UK, Germany, and Denmark. By engaging with global leaders and opinion-makers, India aims to reinforce its firm message and foster greater international cooperation in the fight against the universal menace of terrorism.
