Georgetown: In a powerful message aimed at Islamabad, Congress MP and senior leader Shashi Tharoor on Sunday declared that India will not tolerate cross-border terrorism and vowed that those responsible for killing Indian civilians “will not get away with impunity.”

Speaking in Guyana as part of a multi-party Indian delegation touring foreign nations to highlight India’s strong stance against terrorism, Tharoor emphasized that New Delhi’s approach to security has entered a phase of “resolved determination.”

“Our message is very clear. We have to stand against terrorism wherever it comes,” Tharoor said while addressing the Indian diaspora in Georgetown. “We have to not only bring the evil killers to justice, but we must also seriously challenge those who are financing them, training them, equipping them, directing them to do their evil.”

Tharoor, who had earlier visited the United States as part of the same campaign, said India has endured the brunt of terrorism for over four decades and is no longer willing to tolerate it.

“We will never let anybody believe they can just walk across the border and kill our civilians or kill anybody in our country and get away with impunity,” he said. “We feel we have to show them there is a price to be paid.”

This visit by the Indian delegation comes in the wake of recent security developments and increased international concern over Pakistan’s continued sheltering of terror groups.

Tharoor further stressed the need for global solidarity against terrorism and appealed to the Indian diaspora in Guyana to play an active role in reinforcing India’s position on the global stage.

“We are seeking all of you to join us in expressing support, in strength, in resolve, and in response to this kind of action if it happens again in the future. So this is the purpose of our trip,” he said.
