"The delegation presented a unified front of India, clearly explained the role of Pakistan in the gruesome terror attacks in Pahalgam on April 22 and how India through Operation Sindoor destroyed the terror bases in Pakistan and Pakistan occupied Kashmir. They emphasized India's zero tolerance to Terrorism and conveyed the messages that terror and talks cannot go together; blood and water cannot flow together," the Embassy of India in Japan posted on X.

The delegation highlighted India's commitment to combat terrorism and urged the diaspora there to spread this message to every corner in Japan.

Strong message by our delegation! The "blood and water" analogy perfectly captures why we can't tolerate terrorism from across the border. Proud to see cross-party unity on this critical issue 🇮🇳

While I support the zero-tolerance stance, I hope such delegations also discuss economic cooperation with Japan. Terrorism is important but so are jobs and investments for our youth. Balance is key!

Operation Sindoor was a fitting reply! But we need consistent action, not just strong words abroad. Our forces are doing great work - give them more resources to finish the job.

Good to see opposition leaders like Banerjee and Khurshid standing united on terrorism. When it comes to national security, we must speak with one voice. Japan is an important ally in this fight.

The diaspora can be our best ambassadors! They understand both Indian concerns and Japanese sensibilities. Smart move to engage them in spreading awareness about cross-border terrorism.

"Never Forget Never Forgive" - powerful words. But we must also remember the families affected by Pahalgam attack. Hope the government is providing them proper support and compensation.
