To demonstrate India’s unified and unwavering stance against terrorism, an all-party Indian Parliamentary delegation headed by MP Ravi Shankar Prasad of the Bharatiya Janata Party traveled to Berlin.
On Thursday evening, Ajit Gupte, India’s ambassador to Germany, welcomed the Indian delegation and gave them an update on India-Germany relations, emphasizing the expansion of strategic partnership and growing cooperation in a number of areas, including trade and investment, defense, science and technology, and mobility.
A tweet on social networking site X stated that “India’s Ambassador to Germany Ajit V. Gupte briefed the All-Party Parliamentary Delegation led by MP Shri Ravi Shankar Prasad, on arrival in Berlin.”
In another post on X, the Indian Embassy in Germany stated, “The talks included an overview on India-Germany relations, with focus on expanding Strategic Partnership & growing cooperation in trade & investment, defense, S&T, and mobility.”
On June 5, 2025, the Hon. MP Shri Ravi Shankar Prasad led the All-Party Parliamentary Delegation to Berlin. The Indian Embassy in Germany stated on X that Ambassador Ajit V. Gupte welcomed the nine-member team, which will represent India’s unified and determined stance against terrorism.
According to a press release from the Indian Embassy in Germany, the delegation will be meeting with important figures from the German Federal Foreign Office and Parliament (Bundestag), as well as important members of the Indian community and think tanks in Germany, during their visit, which is scheduled for June 5–7.
BJP MP Daggubati Purandeswari, former Union Minister MJ Akbar, BJP MPs Gulam Ali Khatana and Samik Bhattacharya, Congress MP Amar Singh, Priyanka Chaturvedi from Shiv Sena-UBT, AIADMK MP M Thambidurai, and former diplomat Pankaj Saran are among the nine members of the team, which is led by Ravi Shankar Prasad.
The Indian government’s continued diplomatic outreach under Operation Sindoor and “unwavering adherence” to its zero tolerance stance against terrorism included the delegation’s arrival in Germany.
This diplomatic endeavor is a component of India’s international outreach after Operation Sindoor, which was initiated on May 7 in reaction to the terrorist attack in Pahalgam on April 22 by militants backed by Pakistan that left 26 people dead and numerous others injured.
The Indian Armed Forces then conducted targeted attacks on Pakistani and Pakistan-Occupied Jammu and Kashmir terror infrastructure, killing more than 100 terrorists associated with organizations like Hizbul Mujahideen, Lashkar-eTaiba, and Jaish-e-Mohammed.
