Presumption has shifted; it's no longer India that's being questioned: T.S. Tirumurti
Condemning the Western powers seeking de-escalation in the India-Pakistan conflict, former Permanent Representative of India to the UN, T.S. Tirumurti says, 'They are egging Ukraine to hit back at Russia but expect India, who is the terror victim, must show restraint. With Operation Sindoor, we have exposed Pakistan's role in harbouring terrorists. We have only hit terror camps and have not been needed to offer any proof. We have exposed Pakistan's nuclear bluff. Hope Operation Sindoor leads to regime change in Pakistan'.

'They talk of Islamophobia, anti-semitism but don't acknowledge Hinduphobia which was what Pahalgam was,' says Mr. Tirumurti.
