"What the delegations are going to be telling their interlocutors is that if India is targeted by the terror infrastructure in Pakistan, then, notwithstanding the nuclearisation of South Asia, there will be a response.

He also discussed the objective behind India's diplomatic mission, the 'mediation' in India-Pakistan by US President Donald Trump, and Congress's dissatisfaction with the party's leaders chosen for this mission. #ManishTewari #OperationSindoor #IndiaPakistan

"Those who speak against it (communal violence), their decibel levels are much lower than those who let it grow. That is what is of concern. And it's not Hindu male or Muslim male, it is just the violent male. Fortunately, that violent male is not so numerous but he is very active," said Gopalkrishna Gandhi, former Governor, diplomat, and grandson the of Mahatma Gandhi.
