India's efforts to combat terrorism have taken a significant step forward with the country's regional counterterrorism alliance taking shape, thanks in part to Malaysia's support. A delegation led by Indian officials met with Malaysian MPs and the Director General of SEARCCT in Kuala Lumpur to discuss ways to cooperate against terrorism.
The discussions focused on international cooperation in combating terrorism and India's new normal of responding firmly against terror attacks on Indian soil. The delegation highlighted Operation Sindoor, India's response to Pakistan-sponsored terrorism, and emphasized its commitment to national security under Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
India has reaffirmed its zero-tolerance stance on terrorism through high-level interactions with Malaysian political parties and think-tanks. The delegation delivered a strong message that the entire country stands united against terrorism, condemning the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack and urging action against Pakistan by the FATF.
Malaysia's support for India's counterterrorism efforts is significant, given its own concerns about cross-border terrorism in the region. With Malaysia's backing, India's regional counterterrorism alliance is taking shape, marking a major step forward in the country's fight against terrorism.
