Indian Delegation Joins Raisina Tokyo 2025 Amid Diplomatic Outreach
In a significant display of India’s expanding diplomatic engagement, an All-Party Parliamentary Delegation from India participated in the inaugural session of Raisina Tokyo 2025, held in the Japanese capital on May 22. The event brought together leaders and strategic thinkers from India, Japan, and across the Indo-Pacific region to deliberate on regional security, resilience, and strategic cooperation.

The session took place against the backdrop of Operation Sindoor, India’s swift and successful counter-terrorism operation in Pahalgam earlier this month. The operation has intensified international attention on regional threats, adding urgency and relevance to the discussions at the Raisina Dialogue.
Speakers at the inaugural session expressed strong solidarity with India, with Japanese representatives explicitly reiterating Japan’s unwavering support for India’s fight against terrorism. This public backing is seen as a major diplomatic win for India as it consolidates support from key Indo-Pacific partners amid its proactive outreach following the Pahalgam attacks.
The delegation’s participation reflects a broader strategy by New Delhi to strengthen multilateral ties and assert its role as a regional stabilizer. The involvement of Indian parliamentarians in such forums enhances India’s diplomatic visibility and aligns with its pursuit of a rules-based Indo-Pacific order.
This initiative also follows statements by India’s leadership reaffirming a zero-tolerance policy against cross-border terrorism and an emphasis on sovereign rights to self-defence. The growing participation in Indo-Pacific forums demonstrates how India is using diplomatic platforms to build momentum for its counter-terror doctrine.
