| International recognition of cross-border terrorism validates India's stand: Kavinder Gupta | | |  Early Times Report
JAMMU, July 7: Senior BJP leader and former Deputy Chief Minister Kavinder Gupta said that the international community's recognition of the growing threat of terrorism, especially cross-border terrorism, validates India's long-standing position on the issue. He was referring to the strong condemnation of the recent terror attack in Pahalgam killing 26 Hindu tourists, by the BRICS nations during the 17th BRICS Summit held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Welcoming the "Rio de Janeiro Declaration," the BJP stalwart said the BRICS bloc has echoed India's consistent call for a "zero tolerance" approach to terrorism and rejected the dangerous double standards that some global players adopt while dealing with terrorist threats. "The collective stand taken by the BRICS nations, including Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, is a significant diplomatic victory for India. It sends a clear message to terror-sponsoring states that the world will no longer tolerate the export of terror," he asserted while speaking at the meeting held at Party Headquarters here today.
Kavinder further praised the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, under whose guidance India's counter-terrorism narrative has gained widespread international support. "The inclusion of cross-border terrorism, terror financing, and safe havens in the BRICS declaration shows that India's concerns are now the concerns of the global community," he added.
Referring to the part of the declaration that called for concerted action against all UN-designated terrorists and terror entities, he said such steps are crucial to dismantling the infrastructure that enables terrorism to thrive. "Our brave security forces and innocent civilians in Jammu and Kashmir have long been victims of Pakistan-sponsored terrorism. The BRICS stand is a morale booster for every Indian," he said.
Kavinder also noted that the emphasis by BRICS on states' responsibility to combat terrorism within the framework of international law further strengthens India's argument on holding rogue nations accountable. He said the BJP government remains committed to rooting out terrorism and ensuring peace and development in Jammu and Kashmir.
"Terrorism must be fought unitedly, without bias, and without compromise. The world must come together in both word and action," he concluded. |
