India's Global Diplomacy Push to Expose Pakistan's Terror Links
India is sending multiple delegations to over 30 countries to expose Pakistan's alleged links to terrorism.
This comes after an attack in Pahalgam and a military operation named Sindoor.
The delegations, consisting of leaders from various parties, will deliver a unified message.
The Congress party has criticized the selection process.
Pakistan is also planning its own diplomatic efforts to counter India's campaign.
One point of contention is Congress MP Shashi Tharoor leading a delegation, which has caused friction within his own party.
India is sending seven all-party delegations to multiple countries.
The delegations will consist of 51 political leaders.
The initiative follows the Pahalgam terror attack and Operation Sindoor.
The Congress party has criticized the selection of members for the delegations.
Pakistan plans to launch its own counter-diplomatic campaign in response.
