The multi-party delegations, visiting key capitals across the world beginning Wednesday, will carry country-specific dossiers that will expose Pakistan's direct and indirect links with international terrorism.
The delegations will engage with politicians, parliamentarians, diplomats, civil society, media and diaspora. Seasoned diplomats will accompany the delegations.
Foreign secretary Vikram Misri on Tuesday briefed some of the multi-party delegations on Pakistan's tradition of sponsoring terrorism in India and India's recent strong response. It was underlined how India has been facing cross-border terrorism during the last four decades. Misri emphasised that India has now adopted a new normal in countering such activities.
On the issue of joint probe as suggested by Pakistan, sources said India has received little cooperation in the past when evidence was shared with the neighbouring country. Misri is understood to have said this joint investigation is like asking a thief to investigate his crimes.
Misri briefed MPs that the Indian action targeted terror sites in Pakistan and PoK and not military installations and civilians. It was only after Pakistan attacked Indian military installations and civilians that India hit back, sources said, adding documents and evidence, such as pictures highlighting Pakistan role in terrorism, were shared with MPs.
On Indus Waters treaty, officials informed India was trying to rework the pact as water levels are falling due to climate change. India has been considering treaty modifications for last few years, sources said.
Members of the delegations headed by JDU's Sanjay Jha and Shiv Sena's Shrikant Shinde attended the briefing. "Our message to world leaders will be that enough is enough and that Pakistan has acted like a thief asking to probe its own crime whenever India has in the past trusted its words on acting against terrorism," said Jha who is leading a delegation to Japan, Singapore, South Korea, Malaysia and Indonesia.
Shinde, who is leading a delegation to the UAE and some African countries, said they will highlight Pakistan's links to terror incidents in India.
Trinamool MP Abhishek Banerjee also joined the briefing. Banerjee is part of the delegation led by Jha. The delegation is leaving on Wednesday.
