Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Priyanka Chaturvedi said that her role in the “Operation Sindoor Outreach” mission was a duty to the nation, aiming to spotlight the threat of Pakistan-backed terrorism.

The all-party delegation, led by BJP MP Ravi Shankar Prasad, visited six European countries to build global awareness about cross-border terror and radicalisation. Chaturvedi said her passionate speeches were driven by personal loss after the 26/11 attacks, adding, “If I brought India’s issues to the forefront, that’s my service to the nation.”

She also rebuffed criticism over the mission’s cost, urging detractors to ask their own party members who joined the delegation.
