New Delhi [India], June 8 (ANI): BJP MP Daggubati Purandeswari, a member of the all-party parliamentary delegation led by MP and party colleague Ravi Shankar Prasad, said the group received a positive response during its recent tour across six European countries.

'We visited France, Italy, Denmark, England, Brussels and Germany. We had a very good response everywhere. In each country, we met senior government officials, parliamentarians, think tanks, and the Indian diaspora,' Purandeswari told ANI after the delegation's return to the national capital.

She added that the delegation's key objective was to raise awareness about terrorism and expose Pakistan's role in promoting it. 'We provided them with evidence about Pakistan's involvement in terrorism. The governments we met are now well aware of the situation and are ready to extend their support to India,' she said.

Highlighting the widespread global condemnation of the recent terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Purandeswari said, 'Every country we visited expressed deep anger and solidarity with India over the Pahalgam attack. India's message was clearly conveyed.'

The delegation also held important meetings with representatives of the European Commission and the European Parliament. 'These engagements were very effective in putting forth India's position on cross-border terrorism,' she added.

Emphasising India's growing global standing, Purandeswari noted, 'India has become the fourth largest economy, and Europe recognises India's growing influence and strength in the global fight against terrorism.'

The delegation's visit aimed at strengthening diplomatic ties and reinforcing India's firm stance on zero tolerance towards terrorism.

The all-party delegation led by BJP MP Ravi Shankar Prasad returned to India on Sunday after a diplomatic tour of several European nations.

Speaking to mediapersons upon arrival at the Delhi airport, 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)
