Speaking to ANI, BJP's Rajya Sabha MP and senior advocate Manan Kumar Mishra, part of the same delegation, said, "The message against terrorism is to be given to the entire world. The purpose of the delegation is that we have been suffering from terrorism for 4 decades, but now, we have the policy of zero tolerance towards it."
"After Pahalgam, we waited for 15 days for Pakistan to take some action against terrorists, but they didn't, and then we targeted their terrorist camps on May 7," he said.
