Patna (Bihar) [India], May 18 (ANI): As all-party delegation prepares to visit key partner nations to bolster India's campaign against cross-border terrorism, Rashtriya Janata Dal leader Manoj Jha said the delegation will represent a united national voice abroad, urging friendly countries to stand by India just as India has stood by them in difficult times.
Speaking to ANI, Jha said, "The Centre and the opposition have relevance only in domestic politics. When you go abroad, you become the voice of India. This delegation will execute this mandate. We have to ensure through this delegation that if a country is our friend, whom we have supported in difficult times, then it should support us too."
Earlier today, Janata Dal (United) leader Neeraj Kumar said that it is important for the international community to understand how Pakistan-sponsored terrorism is disturbing the life of citizens in India.
Kumar said the government's move to send multi-party delegations to key nations was a necessary step to convey India's position on terrorism and regional peace.
On Saturday, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Bihar President Dilip Jaiswal stressed that national security must unite all political parties to send a strong message both domestically and internationally.
