At the recent SCO-RATS meeting in Kyrgyzstan, India strongly condemned the Pahalgam terror attack and demanded accountability from its sponsors, organizers, and financiers. Deputy National Security Advisor T V Ravichandran emphasized the need for a unified global stance against terrorism, rejecting double standards in addressing the issue. The significance of India’s position was bolstered by the earlier Tianjin Declaration, which also condemned the attack and highlighted the urgency to combat terrorism collaboratively. Prime Minister Modi’s call for a comprehensive approach linking security, connectivity, and opportunity underscores India’s commitment to addressing terrorism as a priority in regional cooperation strategies.
