MEETINGS IN THE U.S. ASSUME GREAT INTEREST AS IT COMES DAYS AFTER TRUMP'S CLAIMS THAT HE MEDIATED INDIA-PAKISTAN CEASEFIRE
NEW DELHI: A multi-party delegation led by Congress leader Shashi Tharoor will "sensitise" public, government and parliamentary opinion in the US about the "horrendous cross-border terrorism" faced by India and stick to New Delhi's stand that no third party mediated the May 10 ceasefire between the two countries, people aware of developments said on Friday.
Tharoor's group — which also contains Lok Janshakti Party MP Shambhavi Choudhary, Jharkhand Mukti Morcha MP Sarfaraz Ahmad, Telugu Desam Party leader Harish Balayogi, Bharatiya Janata Party leaders Shashank Mani Tripathi, Tejaswi Surya and Bhubaneswar Kalita, Shiv Sena leader Milind Deora, and former US ambassador Taranjit Singh Sandhu — is headed for the US, Guyana, Colombia, Panama and Brazil.
The delegation will also resist any attempt to equate the Prime Ministers of India and Pakistan, and even mention efforts by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to broker peace in the Ukraine War, said the people cited above.
