WASHINGTON – BJP MP Tejasvi Surya, the part of the multi-party delegation led by Congress leader Shashi Tharoor mocked the Bilawal Bhutto-led UN delegation, called it ”a devil preaching peace”.
Surya was asked about India not providing evidence of Pakistan’s involvement in the Pahalgam Terror attack & success of Operation Sindoor at the National Press Club.
He said,” Such claims by Pakistan are not unprecedented. Their history of sponsoring cross-border terrorism is well documented — from the 1947 invasion of Kashmir by Pakistani soldiers disguised as raiders, to the 1999 Kargil conflict, and major attacks like 26/11 Mumbai and Pathankot.”
Surya said ”Bilawal Bhutto calling his delegation a peace delegation is ironic – it’s like the Devil quoted from the scriptures. A country that is surviving on cheap imports and creating fake heroes, Pakistan doesn’t know what true leaders look like. It is hard for them to digest high-quality military hardware as well as strong democratic leadership on the other side of the border in India.”
He said Operation Sindoor marked India’s precise response to Pakistan-backed terrorism, where India struck the bases of internationally recognized terror groups.
”The fact that Pakistan’s DGMO reached out to India following the operation speaks volumes. It reflects an acknowledgment of both the operation’s success and the legitimacy of India’s concerns.”
A parliamentary delegation from Pakistan, led by PPP Chairman and former foreign minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, arrived in Washington, DC on Wednesday.
