Tokyo [Japan], May 23 (ANI): Highlighting India's fight against cross-border terrorism, JD(U) MP Sanjay Kumar Jha on Friday asserted that the all-party delegation are visiting different countries in the world to apprise the global community about Pakistan-sponsored terrorism.
Jha was interacting with Ambassadors and diplomats of Brazil, Australia, Colombia, Greece and South Korea in Japan's Tokyo.
The Janata Dal (United) MP, who is leading one of the seven all-party delegations, stressed that India today is a victim of terrorism, and it could be any other country in the future.
Pointing out Islamabad's involvement in cross-border terrorism, he further mentioned that Pakistan funds terrorists, trains them and sends them to India.
'We are going to different countries to apprise the world that today it is India and tomorrow it could be you also. So don't be a fence-sitter. Fight against terrorism is for everyone. We are representing our people; we are going all over the world to apprise about the cross-border terrorism of Pakistan. It is state-sponsored terrorism. They finance it, they fund it, they train them and they send them to India and to other parts of the world also,' Jha Said.
'Every terrorist activity in the world has some or other link in Pakistan, so this time our Prime Minister has also said it is a new normal. Enough is enough...if anything happens to our citizens, we will hit back; we will retaliate,' he added.
In a reference to his home state Bihar's connection with Buddhism, Jha said, 'I come from the state of Bihar, where Buddhism is born. Buddhism is for 'Ahimsa' - for peace.'
