NEW YORK:

Tharoor said that the visit to the 9/11 Memorial was in a spirit of solidarity and was a "very moving moment for us". But it was also meant to send a very strong message that "we are here in a city, which is bearing still the scars of that savage terrorist attack, in the wake of yet another terrorist attack in our own country," a reference to the April 22 Pahalgam attack.

He said that, unlike the US, India has had to endure a "very much larger number of terrorist attacks.
