New Delhi [India], June 8 (ANI): Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Priyanka Chaturvedi, who was part of the Group-2 delegation led by Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Ravi Shankar Prasad, said on Sunday that the team received a very positive response from European nations regarding India's stance against terrorism.

Speaking to ANI about the trip, Chaturvedi said, 'India and our delegation have received a very positive response. This shows that the world understands the fear of terrorism, and it is very important to stay united to address this issue... Everyone is united and equivocal about the fact that terrorism in all its forms has to be condemned.'

She added that the delegation engaged in talks with government officials, ministers, think tanks, and media representatives across Europe, all of whom expressed consistent support for India's long-standing fight against terrorism.

'We went to six different countries and had discussions with media, think-tanks, govt officials, ministers... Everyone believes that the way India has been fighting for decades against terrorism sponsored by Pakistan, the same way countries in Western Europe are facing the same kind of challenges. We told the countries that Pakistan takes loans from the IMF to protect its terror camps. Europe has condemned terrorism in all its forms...' Chaturvedi said.

She further exposed how Pakistan has been misleading the world with false narratives. 'A completely fake narrative was being spread by their (Pakistan) army as well. Their own Generals were putting video war games in their press conferences and making all sorts of claims. We got a sense of clarity from the officials we met. The Foreign Minister of Germany totally condemned this, and to ensure accountability, everyone is anonymous.'

Chaturvedi also noted the wide reach of the delegation's efforts, saying, 'This was a successful trip... These 7 delegations had meetings in almost 40 countries. I believe its outcome will be positive. Whether it is the United Nations, the IMF or the World Bank, everyone will adopt an accountability approach towards Pakistan.'

The team, led by BJP MP Prasad, visited six nations and held high-level meetings on the issue of terrorism, where they strongly highlighted Pakistan's role in sponsoring terror.

Earlier in the day, the all-party delegation led by BJP MP Ravi Shankar Prasad returned to India after a diplomatic tour of several European nations. The delegation arrived at the airport in the national capital following a multi-nation visit aimed at strengthening India's ties with European partners.

Speaking to the media upon arrival, Prasad said, 'It feels great to be back in India. Our delegation visited France, Italy, Denmark, England, Brussels and Germany. We met senior leaders of the Parliament, think-tank and the Indian community. The foreign nations have a lot of anger over the terrorist attack in Pahalgam, and all the nations have condemned this. We went to the European Parliament as well. The Indian community was very excited to meet us. A new relationship is going to be established between India and Europe. It was a very satisfying visit...'

The recent visit by the all-party Group-2 delegation, led by BJP MP Prasad, took place amid growing international concern over terror attacks, notably the Pahalgam incident in Jammu and Kashmir, which has drawn widespread condemnation from global partners. (ANI)
