AAP MP Raghav Chadha slams Pakistan: 'Lies and loans, terror and tolerance don't go together'
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Raghav Chadha on 30 May called Operation Sindoor a 'measured' and 'non-escalatory' response to the Pahalgam terror attack. The Rajya Sabha Member of Parliament said India's hand of friendship can transform into a 'fist of retribution' if someone indulges in misadventure. "Very recently, there was an unfortunate incident in Pahalgam. It becomes very important that we highlight that India's strategic autonomy is also reflected in the fact that in the aftermath of the most cowardly attack of Pahalgam, where 26 civilians were butchered, India did not go around town seeking consent to retaliate," Chadha said while speaking at the 'Ideas for India Conference 2025' in London, United Kingdom on 30 May. Two weeks after the Pahalgam terror attack, India on 7 May conducted precision strikes on at least nine terror camps in Pakistan in what is known as 'Operation Sindoor'. India and Pakistan indulged in four days of military action post Operation Sindoor. The two nations, however, agreed on an understanding to halt military action on 10 May. At a global stage, Chadha said, Pakistan is not a victim state, it's a terror state. "Lies and loans can't go together. Diplomacy and duplicity of Pakistan can't go together. Terror and Tolerance can't exist together. India seeks peace — but if provoked, retribution won't be an exception, it will be an expectation," he said. Lies and loans can't go together. Diplomacy and duplicity of Pakistan can't go together. Chadha also pointed out that Pakistan today is in economic turmoil and in an institutional crisis. 'India today is known to export software, to export education, to export agricultural products, dairy products, so on and so forth. Pakistan today is known to export only one thing, terrorism. India is investing in healthcare, education, science and technology, research and development,' he said. Earlier this month, Chadha was also invited as a keynote speaker at the prestigious Asian Leadership Conference (ALC) 2025, held in Seoul, South Korea. He strongly condemned the Pakistan-sponsored terrorist attack in Pahalgam on a global stage.

India's Response Non-Escalatory After Pahalgam Terror Attack: Raghav Chadha
New Delhi: Calling Operation Sindoor a "measured" and "non-escalatory" response to the Pahalgam terror attack, AAP Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha on Friday said India's hand of friendship can transform into a "fist of retribution" if someone indulges in misadventure, according to a video clip shared by him on his X handle. He was speaking at the 'Ideas for India Conference 2025' in London, United Kingdom. "Very recently, there was an unfortunate incident in Pahalgam. It becomes very important that we highlight that India's strategic autonomy is also reflected in the fact that in the aftermath of the most cowardly attack of Pahalgam, where 26 civilians were butchered, India did not go around town seeking consent to retaliate," he added. India had carried out strikes on nine sites in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and Pakistan, marking its deepest strikes inside Pakistan in decades in retaliation for a deadly terrorist attack on April 22. Thereafter, Pakistan attempted to unleash drones and missiles at Indian military targets in more than a dozen cities and towns, many of them home to air force bases. "India told its worthy partners in the world that, look, we are all for peace, but do not mistake our peacefulness for our weakness. While we extend the hand of friendship, but if you indulge in misadventures, then that hand of friendship can become the fist of retribution," he said. As a result, India responded in a "non-escalatory", "precise", "measured", "calculated" and "swift" response where cross-border strikes were made and terror infrastructures across the border -- not civilians, not military bases -- were brought down, he shared. "At a global stage -- I say, Pakistan is not a victim state, it's a terror state. At the 'Ideas for India Conference 2025' in London, I called out Pakistan's decades-old terror machinery. Blood and water can't flow together. "Lies and loans can't go together. Diplomacy and duplicity of Pakistan can't go together. Terror and Tolerance can't exist together. India seeks peace - but if provoked, retribution won't be an EXCEPTION, it will be an EXPECTATION," he said. Earlier this month, COperation hadha was also invited as a keynote speaker at the prestigious Asian Leadership Conference (ALC) 2025, held in Seoul, South Korea. At the event, he strongly condemned the Pakistan-sponsored terrorist attack in Pahalgam on a global stage. He lauded the Indian Army's courage during Operation Sindoor and emphasised that India no longer merely expresses sorrow over acts of terrorism but now responds with precise and decisive military action.
