An all-party delegation led by Congress MP Shashi Tharoor briefed senior U.S. officials in Washington on India’s concerns about cross-border terrorism emanating from Pakistan.
The delegation conveyed New Delhi’s position on militant activity along the India-Pakistan border and the need for international pressure on Islamabad to dismantle terror infrastructure. Meetings with American officials covered intelligence sharing and diplomatic coordination.
India has repeatedly raised cross-border terrorism at bilateral and multilateral forums, citing attacks linked to groups operating from Pakistani territory. The Washington visit aimed to reinforce those concerns with the current U.S. administration.
All-party delegations allow Indian lawmakers from multiple parties to present unified national security messages abroad. Tharoor’s leadership of the group signals Congress participation alongside government-aligned members.
The briefings occurred amid broader discussions of regional security and Pakistan’s domestic counterterrorism operations, which India monitors for effectiveness along the shared border.
