Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], May 18 (ANI): Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray on Sunday welcomed the Centre’s move to send an all-party delegation to other countries to explain India’s stand on terrorism and Operation Sindoor, but he urged that it should be done fairly and without politics.
He also demanded a special Parliament session to honour the armed forces and discuss the full chain of events.
Speaking to ANI, Aaditya Thackeray said, “When the Pahalgam attack took place, all the parties, including the opposition, supported the PM to take strict action. Since then, we continue to demand that he himself should attend that all-party meeting, but it hasn’t happened. We also demand that a special session of the parliament be called to honour our armed forces and to discuss the entire chain of events. It’s good that all parties are being brought together, but it must be done fairly and there should be no politicisation.”
The All-Party Delegations will project India’s national consensus and resolute approach to combating terrorism in all its forms and manifestations. They will convey to the world the country’s strong message of zero tolerance for terrorism.
The Members of Parliament from different parties, prominent political personalities, and distinguished diplomats will be part of each delegation.
The list includes MPs from multiple parties, divided into seven groups of 8-9 members. A leader has been assigned for each group, who will lead the delegation at a global level.
This came after India’s decisive military response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack. Operation Sindoor, launched on May 7, targeted terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, leading to the death of over 100 terrorists affiliated with terror outfits like the Jaish-e-Mohammed, Lashkar-e-Taiba and Hizbul Mujahideen.
After the attack, Pakistan retaliated with cross-border shelling across the Line of Control and Jammu and Kashmir as well as attempted drone attacks along the border regions, following which India launched a coordinated attack and damaged radar infrastructure, communication centres and airfields across 11 airbases in Pakistan.
