India has thanked the Sri Lankan parliamentary delegation for backing their fight against terrorism.

A statement issued by the Indian HC in Colombo quoted Speaker of Lok Sabha Om Birla as having thanked the delegation for expressing its solidarity with India’s fight against terrorism.

The visit took place in the wake of India launching attacks over the Pahalgam massacre.

The text of the IHC statement: “A Parliamentary delegation from Sri Lanka, led by Deputy Speaker Dr. Rizvie Salih, visited India from 25-31 May 2025. The delegation comprised 20 Members of Parliament (MP), representing various political parties, and four officials of the Sri Lankan Parliament, including the Secretary General.

The delegation was the inaugural batch to undergo the Orientation Programme at India’s Parliamentary Research and Training Institute for Democracies (PRIDE) in New Delhi.
