India's Firm Response to Terrorism
JDU MP Sanjay Kumar Jha stated that the illusion of Pakistan's nuclear threat has dissipated, as Prime Minister Modi has introduced a new principle: if you harm our citizens, we will retaliate against your terrorist bases. India has been combating terrorism for the past four decades and will no longer remain passive; any such activities will prompt a strong response. Through global delegations, awareness is rising, and people are becoming increasingly informed about how the Pakistani army operates in relation to terrorism.
Support from Japanese Lawmakers
MP Sanjay Kumar Jha mentioned that they met with several Japanese lawmakers today, all of whom expressed their support in the fight against terrorism. They presented evidence showing how Pakistani military officials participated in the funerals of terrorists. The narrative of Pakistan as a victim has been thoroughly debunked, and the world now recognizes the terrorism sponsored by Pakistan. They also discussed statements made by the Pakistani army chief and the prevailing mindset about India, which many in Japan were previously unaware of.
Bipartisan Delegation's Efforts
BJP MP Aparajita Sarangi, a member of the bipartisan delegation, shared, "We have been here for two days, and this is the first country we have visited. I am pleased to report that we received significant cooperation from the Japanese government. We met with prominent leaders and politicians to discuss the incident that occurred on April 22 and criticized Pakistan's role in promoting terrorism. Whether discussing Lashkar-e-Taiba or Jaish-e-Mohammed, or the proxy group The Resistance Front, all are fostered by Pakistan. Our discussions have taken place in a very positive atmosphere, and it feels like everyone stands with us in this war against terrorism. Japan is with us, and I hope we receive similar positive responses in the next four countries we visit.
