THIRUVANANANTHAPURAM: (May 8) Congress MP Shashi Tharoor on Thursday said that India has no interest in initiating a war against Pakistan, but he was certain that the country would give a strong reply if its civilian, military, or government establishments were attacked by its neighbour.
Tharoor, speaking to reporters here, said that India gave a “calibrated response” to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack that claimed 26 lives, but “we have no intention of escalating it further”.
“We had to reply to the terror attack and we did that. We did that by targeting terrorist base camps and at night to prevent any civilian casualties. We gave a calibrated response. PTI
